The people of Ithikkara adored him and loved him.
His name Pakki(Butterfly) is derived from his flying speed
for doing things quickly.He had not cheated anybody while doing
his feats as a robber.It is also learnt that he had done the robbery
or feat after telling the concerned in advance.He died at the age of 45

A honest thief??? Contrasting ideas, still much more real than the Robin Hoods and better than the Veerappans. Very nice insight in to the personal life of the often used character in Mallu land.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS KOCHU FOR THE NICE COMMENTS...YES..LIKE KAYAMAKULAM KOCHUNNU WHO WAS ALSO A HONES THIEF....COMPARED TO OUR POLITICIANS THESE PEOPLE WERE VERY NICE....:)
DeleteI suppose such ppl were required those days...I suppose India may have had lot of poverty along with lot of arbitrary & unfair law. English focused on taking wealth out, leaned on helpless kings to manage their show with ease, who in turn leaned on zamindars & feudals. Poor would have their own heroes to get a fair deal.

ReplyDeleteIthikkara pakki as well as kayamkulam kochunni were thiefs but the steal money and gave it to poor. And also in new malayalam movie kayamkulam kochunni mohanlal is playing the role ithikkara pakki . Kochunni is also a good thief who stand for poor welfare...
ReplyDeleteHats off to the good things done by them for the poor
I am aged 69 and bolonging to Kollam. I heard much about Kayamkulam Kochunni,Ithikkara Pakki, Mulamootadima and Chembulingam, all of them are destined to become thieves having magnanimity to distribute their stolen valuables to poor and done Shadow fight against the English rulers and fudelism. That was a time of untouchability and the cruelly of the rich people towards the poor went to the extent of making them slaves and the poor are at blissful ignorance of their rights.
