Ref : RLAF / H.B /Press Date :27.09.2009 PRESS NOTE ROMI LIPI ACTION FRONT condoles death of "H.Britton" The Romi Lipi Action Front, is saddened by the sudden death of Shri. H.Britton, a talented Konkani Tiatrist, hailing from Brittona, Bardez, Goa.. Shri H.Britton, started his professional singing career, in Mumbai, somewhere around 1960, and shot into fame around 1970. Shri H, Britton had a unique style of singing and a very pleasant voice. His thousands of fans liked to see him dress as a girl and sing songs portraying a modern girl. This H.Britton did to perfection. Whenever, H.Britton sang more than one song in a tiatr, one of the songs would inevitably be H. Britton dressed as a girl. The song was bound to have an "encore" from the audiences. The lyrics of his compositions and the way H. Britton carried himself, always titillated the audiences. Among the many songs composed and sung by H,Britton, some have become immortal. Among the immortalized ones are, Bandra Festak, Marialena, Kazarachya Mattvan, etc.. Shri H.Britton also wrote, directed and produced several Konkani Tiatros which ran to packed-houses, wherever staged. As a Tiatrist, H.Britton traveled to many parts of the world, including U.K and the Middle East. Shri. H. Britton's entire family is into Konkani Tiatrs. They may not be into it professionally, but as Tiatrists, yes they are. Shri. H. Britton wrote and read Konkani only in the Roman Script and he always believed that the real future of Konkani lies, in it being promoted in the Roman script. In the sudden death of Shri H.Britton, the "Romi Lipi Action Front" has lost a friend, an active supporter. We pray for his soul and may God grant sufficient courage to his family to bear the loss.
