Padmanabhan is the Sachin amongst all elephants. There may be taller, more beautiful, more artistic elephants. But double hundred is rare (Please remember the price of more than 2 Lakh given to him by Vallanghy Desam in a great battle to bring him). He is definitely the god in elephant religion

He is the only living elephant who had received "Veerashringala " from Ambalapuzha Maharajavu.. But i am bit confused about the height of Padmanabhan. Is 298cm the real height of him?
