Born in 1966 with the proverbial silver spoon in his mouth, this young man studied Commerce at the Government Arts College, Trivandrum, while embarking on a film career in Mollywood. He made his debut in the 1985 film "Erakal" directed by K G George. A man of great versatility and impeccable taste, Ganesh Kumar has acted in a variety of Malayalam films and television serials. In May 2008, he performed a daring fire escape act at Kozhikode for the telefilm “Agnisakshiyay." In November 2008 he won the State Award for Best Television Actor (2007) for his role in the serial "Madhavam", aired on Surya TV.
In 2001, Ganesh Kumar was elected to the Kerala Assembly from Pathanapuram on the Kerala Congress (B) ticket. This was the first time in the history of Kerala that a cine artiste had been elected to the Assembly. His father and former Minister, R Balakrishan Pillai had also been elected from the neighbouring constituency of Kottarakara, which he had represented for several decades. The father-son duo made history by becoming the first such pair to adorn the Kerala Assembly simultaneously.
Ganesh Kumar was appointed as Transport Minister in the A K Antony cabinet in May 2001. He surprised many by his political acumen and went on to give a good account of himself. Though only 34 years old and a political novice, he turned around the ailing KSRTC (Kerala State Road Transport Corporation) in record time and earned a reputation for providing a clean and efficient administration. In March 2003, he stepped down from his ministerial post to facilitate his father’s induction into the Cabinet.
In the 2006 Assembly elections, Ganesh Kumar was once again elected from Pathanapuram. This time he was the only UDF candidate elected from Kollam district, where the LDF won 11 out of 12 seats. His increased victory margin clearly indicated that his popularity remained undiminished.
Ganesh Kumar’s hat-trick win from Pathanapuram in the 2011 elections saw him increasing his lead to 20,402 votes. This time the CPI had surrendered the ticket to the CPM, but the candidate, K Rajagopal, Kollam District Secretary and veteran Marxist proved to be no match for the immensely popular sitting MLA.
Ganesh Kumar went on to become a Minister in the Oomen Chandy cabinet in May 2011. He has diverse interests and his over-riding fascination for vehicles includes transport buses and even pachyderms.

Ganesh kumar is involved in many sex scandals and is also the most dishonest person ever. In fact if anyone is a born criminal it is him, considering his father was also a very known criminal.
this is utter nonsense. he is a dignified person and you have no right to say about him. he is a person of great qualities and is adorable. you have no right to call him a criminal. and do not test his honesty.
I really like when people are expressing their opinion and thought. So I like the way you are writing
I would appreciate more visual materials, to make your blog more attractive, but your writing style really compensates it. But there is always place for improvement
I remember his tenure as the Transport Minister, he was really a shining star back then. The KSRTC people became very user friendly in his tenure and the people as well as th KSRTC staff liked and repected him. I remember a distinct incident when he suddenly went into KSRTC Bus Station in Thrisur and inspected the facilities and even went into the toilet and ordered the officials to take are of the sanitation and other things, I really feel he is one of the youngster politician who can really make a difference in future, all in-spite of being the son of a corrupt politician, talks a lot about his character.
K.B is a dignifed man with lots of qualities and views.he is a positive energy spreader and a rennaissance spokesman.some humbugs may comment gossips on him.never mind it...............sameer
a dignified personality of leadership qualities. he is the right person to lead our state to the right path. My heart felt congratulations for his winning in his constituency. My sincere gratitude and thanks to the people of pathanapuram who elected him and more over had faith in him in ruling the state. he is a person of moral values. I wish him all the best in all his endevavours
he is not a dignified person...only for his supporters clapping he abused VS,he is most respectful leader in kerala, VS dont have inborn criminal like him, all his family filled with criminals like him,his father balakrishna pilla is only responsible for the pathetic condition of our kSRTC, half of his welth he earned from KSRTC.
even a commom man is bother about the statements he make in front of public, Mr. ganeshan is experienced minister and serving public, he is uttering very indecent words against VS, he dont have any moral right to serve public. he must resig from the cabinet.
Indeed wrong to say those words against any person esp a person much elder than him. But I dont have any sympathy for VS who himself is known for his abusive skills. Dont forget his utterings about others with utmost indecency. Especially about Maj. Sandeep Unnikrishnan, Dr.Abdul Kalam etc. to mention some.
The estate lobby is working against him
