"Purananuru is a monumental classical text that spans the period from the 3rd century BCE to the 3rd century CE. Comprising 400 songs, it is a treasure trove of ancient Dravidian literature, shedding light on various aspects of life, including war, bravery, generosity, and the lives of South Indian kings. The text is considered a crucial source for understanding the rich cultural history of Southern India. The translation of Purananuru into Malayalam marks a historic milestone, as it is the first time this classical text has been rendered in the Malayalam language. This translation not only makes the text accessible to a wider audience but also bridges a significant cultural and linguistic gap between Tamil and Malayalam literary traditions."
