Ammu first young Indian to drive two-wheeler blindfolded
When Ammu was only three years old she got the magic bug. As a young learner she was able to pick up the trick of the trade quickly. And at the age of 13 she drove a two-wheeler blindfolded. Since then she has never looked back, vowing her die-hard fans with her tricks. She was at the centre of attraction at the world women magicians' conference at Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, last month.
Internationally-acclaimed magicians, like Luna Shimada, who had converged on the venue to showcase their tricks were well impressed by the 16-year-old girl. Recognising her talent, they promised to help hone her magic skills. According to a famous magician Gopinath Muthukad, Ammu is the youngest girl to have driven a two-wheeler blindfolded, setting a national record. She performed her first magic show at the age of five and appeared on more than 5,000 stages, claims her father Muthukulam Rajasekharan, a freelance journalist. She won the Maya 2010 award at the world women magicians' conference.
Of late, she has been holding magic shows to eradicate social evils like smoking and alcoholism. It was extremely successful, says Ammu. 'Once an old drunkard watched my magic show and after that he thanked me for educating him. It is difficult to change habits, but such shows are useful,' she says. Also, she has performed in other states, including Maharashtra and Rajasthan.
Ammu has become a popular magician. Recently, the Regional Cancer Centre of Thiruvananthapuram, roped her in for a magic show in Kollam district against smoking, a major cause for cancer. Besides, she has also begun to impart training to students fond of magic. 'My aim is not only to win accolades but also to popularise the art of magic among youngsters,' she adds.
