The Mumbai Literary Forum continues its vibrant journey of nurturing Malayalam language and literature in the city with its May 2026 Monthly Discussion, promising an engaging and thought-provoking evening for literature enthusiasts.
📚 Venue: Kerala Bhavan, Matunga
The session is scheduled to be held on Sunday, 3rd May 2026 at 4:30 PM at the well-known cultural hub, Kerala Bhavan Matunga—a space that has long served as a meeting ground for Mumbai’s Malayali community and a nurturing platform for literary and cultural exchange.
This month’s highlight will be story presentations by noted literary enthusiast Sri Joy Guruvayur, whose narratives are known for their depth, cultural rootedness, and contemporary relevance. His storytelling sessions often resonate deeply with audiences, blending nostalgia with modern sensibilities and sparking meaningful discussions among listeners.
The Mumbai Literary Forum has been consistently organizing such monthly gatherings with the aim of encouraging reading, writing, and critical appreciation of Malayalam literature. These sessions provide a welcoming space for writers, readers, and literary thinkers to come together, exchange ideas, and celebrate the richness of the Malayalam language even while living away from Kerala.
Participants can expect an interactive atmosphere where stories are not just heard but discussed—offering perspectives that enrich understanding and appreciation. The forum’s meetings have, over time, become a cherished platform for both emerging voices and seasoned contributors within the Malayali diaspora in Mumbai.
All literature lovers, especially members of the Malayali community in and around Mumbai, are warmly invited to attend and be part of this enriching literary evening according to a press release by K. P. Vinayan
