Tamil film director R.D. Narayanamurthy died Tuesday night at Omandurar Government Hospital in Chennai at age 59. Medical staff had treated the filmmaker for one week before his death. His wife Hamsaveni and son Lokeswaran survive him. The family will conduct funeral ceremonies Friday after their son returns from London. Hospital officials will transfer his remains to a private facility before moving them to his Pammal residence in Kancheepuram district.

Narayanamurthy gained recognition through his romantic comedy Manathai Thirudi Vittai, which starred Prabhu Deva, Vadivelu, and Gayatri Jayaraman. The film's comedic sequences and musical numbers remain popular today. Vadivelu's performances with Prabhu Deva and late actor Vivek became iconic moments that inspire internet memes. The entertainment industry expressed shock at his passing. Actress Gayatri Jayaraman posted tribute messages on social media, crediting Narayanamurthy for launching her career and acknowledging their collaboration on the Nandini television series years later.
