Subsequently, he switched over to short stories, and then to novels. He also wrote plays, skits and features for broadcast, and editorial pieces for a couple of weeklies. His literary works had the sparkle of poetic splendour. The genre of novel turned out to be his forte, and little wonder, he is hailed as a poet in the garb of a novelist
Uroob, whose name has 40-odd volumes to his credit. The impressive list includes novels like Ummachu, Sundarikalum Sundaranmarum, Ammini, Aniyara, Kunjammayum Koottukarum, and Mindappennu.
