The B in B. Lenin stands for __________

Bhim Singh. Lenin, a fine editor & national award winner for directing Oorukku Nooru Paer, is the son of Bhim Singh. His brother B. Kannan is a well known cinematographer. Kannan & Lenin. Doesn't gel. So is Lenin a screen name of sorts? Can anyone out there shed some light?

  1. Vladimir Ilyich. Post Independence India. Popularity of Socialism. Communist leanings of Artists. Jayakanthan influence on Bhim Singh.
    Does that answer?

  2. No. I wanna know if Lenin was his birth name...If Bhim Singh was influenced by communists how come he called his other son Kannan?
