Lakshamanan Krishnan insan yang melihat bakat sebelum ia bersinar

Daripada P Ramlee hingga kanak-kanak kurang bernasib baik, belau dikenang kerana melihat potensi manusia dan membuka peluang buat mereka.

Lakshamanan Krishnan insan yang melihat bakat sebelum ia bersinar

P Ramlee was visibly nervous during his talent test at Shaw Brothers Studio in Jalan Ampas, Singapore, to the point where even a simple dialogue like "How is Inche Bakar?" was affected by his embarrassment. The actor, whose real name was Teuku Zakaria Teuku Nyak Puteh, jokingly remarked: "How is Inche Khabar?" Krishnan, a fan of the story, also remembered P Ramlee's first reaction to him — a young man who was not particularly quick-witted due to his pimply and acne-ridden face.

While such remarks might sound harsh to others, they came across as pure affection from Krishnan, who recognized the man before he became a legendary figure. This may be one of Krishnan's greatest gifts for seeing potential in someone before history determined who they ultimately were.
