Abhirami Associates and Charitable Trust, Ekta Pravasi and Panthera Leo will together organise a mega show, Lalitham 50, in honour of actor KPAC Lalitha’s 50 years in Malayalam cinema. The show, to be directed by director Padmakumar, will be held at the Victoria College ground in Palakkad on December 27

They would also construct homes for 10 homeless widows in connection with the occasion, the organisers told the media here on Tuesday.

Lalitha, who is chairperson of the Kerala Sangeetha Nataka Akademi, said it surprised her that some people from Palakkad wanted to celebrate her achievements in film. “It shows their generosity and it couldn’t have come at a better time,” she said.
