Trying to find this man from an old Kerala family photo (Malabar, supply business)
Hey Reddit, this might be a long shot, but I'm hoping the internet can help me find him.
I came across this old photograph in a friend's family album(she's from Chengannur). The man in the center (striped shirt) was once very close to their family. From what I've heard, he wasn't just an acquaintance - he was someone who shared a genuine bond with them during that time when her grandparents were in Malabar ( they did setup an hotel near famous Kottiyoor temple and he and his brother was associated with it)
There's something about him that really stood out to me just sparked a quiet curiosity. It made me wonder what his life has been like since then, where he is now, and how he's doing.
What I know so far:
He's from the Malabar region
He was involved in some kind of export/supnlv-related work

This photo is quite old, so he'd likely be much older now
Both the original photo and an Al-coloured version have been uploaded for better clarity.
This post is coming purely from a place of respect and curiosity. If anyone happens to recognize him or has any information, I'd just love to know how life turned out for him - and to pass that along to the family who once knew him and still remember him fondly.
He feels like one of those people you randomly come across in life... and then somehow never meet or find again.
P.S. He oddly reminds me of the song
"Pathinezhinte Poonkaralil."
Thanks for taking the time to read
