Concieved and shaped non-political,non-sectarian,non-religious,social and cultural organisations,the main objectives of the Samithi are promotion of cultural actvites and social integration and intaraction with the local and other linguistic cultural organisations,exposing the arts and culture of Kerala to them and vice versa .The Samithi thus strives to contribute towards the assimilation of the differnt cultures of social set-ups into an integrated entity,in doing so,the Samithi has, in its own humble and limited way,contributed its mite to act as a bridge in uniting the citizens of this growing metropolis.

It is a matter of worth highlighting that our samithi was granted an amount of Rs10000/- by the govt of Andhra Pradesh in 1995 as a recognition of our contribution to the cultural activies and for further cultural devolopments of this area.They are running a Library where more than a thousands of assorted Malayalam and other languages books are available.

With the unstinted support and cooperation of the members and with the help of the local philanthropic minded friends and well wishers,they have constructed KALA KERALAM FUNCTION HALL with stage and eight rooms in a prime piece of land measuring more than sixty cents abutting the National Highway, Opposite to the Industrial Estate.

Kala Samithi is instrumental in bringing various artist and group performers from various parts of Kerala to present various art and cultural programmes to the Marunaadan Malayalees at Vizag.This activithy really helps in promoting various artists in their lively hood and at the same time enhancing the artistic and cultural values of Kerala in the mindset of the new generation.

Kala Samithi is organising the festivals of Kerala with a Kerala touch for the benefit of Malayalees at Vizag. Onam is one of such festival which is unique to the God s Own Country i.e., Kerala remembering the good and prosperous olden days of the ruling of the Great King Mahabali is a wonderful experience of all Keralites irrespective of religion and caste.

Spirit with which they had started the samithi have a long way in fullfilling the obligation to the members in particular and to the society around in general.
