In his message he has said that the death of Hussain has created a void in the world of art and it is difficult to visualize the world without his versatile personality.

Following is the text of the message of Prof. K.V. Thomas: -

“ I join millions of our countrymen to condole the death of the world renowned artist Shri M.F. Hussain. His demise has created a void in the world of art. It is indeed very difficult to visualize a world without his versatile personality.

On this occasion, I fondly cherish the pleasant occasion of his visit and stay in Kerala for nearly three months, when I was the Minister of Tourism in Government of Kerala. I fondly recall that he made a painting of “Kalyanikutti Logam” and also presented a few paintings to me and my family, which even today, I preserve as the most valuable piece of treasure.

His all inclusive vision and commitment to promote art, literature and human values will always be cherished by the people of our countrymen for a long time to come.

I pray that his soul finds an eternal peace and that we continue to draw inspiration and guidance from his life.”
