Amar Shaheed

Veerapandiya Kattabomman is the king of Panchalankurichi. He is a devotee of his family deity, Murugan of Thiruchendur. On receiving news of a robbery, he and his retinue set out incognito to capture the robbers. When they are captured, they confess that they had been hired by the British to create unrest in his domain. They also tell him that the British had enticed the neighbouring chieftain, Ettappan, to help them in their endeavour to annexe.
