In a fateful day for Tamil cinema, the industry has lost one of it's stalwarts, as legendary cinematographer B Kannan has passed away today at a private hospital in Chennai. He was 69.
B Kannan, who's the son of legendary director Bhimsingh and brother of editor B Lenin, has been known for his long standing collaboration with director Bharathiraja and had worked with him from Nizhalgal till Bommalattam.
B Kannan has heart issues and had underwent a surgery recently in a private hospital in Vadapalani. However, as he didn't respond well to the treatment, Kannan passed away at 2 PM today. Condolences are pouring for the legend who was fondly called as Bharathiraja's eyes.
Very sad to report the passing away of Legendary Cinematographer #BKannan sir, who worked in more than 50 films (40 films with @offBharathiraja sir). He was HoD at @BOFTAindia for Cinematography. Very sad we lost such a jovial & wonderful person from our team. #RIP Kannan sir???? pic.twitter.com/GGJIldISrg
