Chellammal
- Born: 1905, Madurai
- Marriage (1): Panchapakesan
- Died: 1983, Neyveli at age 78
 General Notes:
Chellammal - or Chella Periamma as we called her, also known as Kannadiamma - for the spectacles that we always remember her by, was the second daughter of A.Lakshminarayanan (referred to as AL) - who was a prominent lawyer in Madurai, in South India.
A little known fact - after she married, her name was actually formally changed to Dharmambal, but that never stuck!
As the other grandmother, she was a complete contrast to Patti - she wasn't prone to speaking much about herself, but we still remember her quick and sharp wit. Coupled with the quiet and gentle nature, was an incredible industriousness - we remember her amazing concentration while doing things with her hands - weaving little baskets in plastic wire or making other such handicraft items.
