Menon Nagulendran was the recipient of the Ilamvaahai Award at Top Talents Awards Gala 2012. The Ilamvaahai Award is an Award presented to recognize a unique achievement by a Tamil youth. It is not an Award that is presented every year, but awarded in very special circumstances. Ilamvaahai comes from the root words “ilam” meaning young and “vaahai” meaning success. This year’s recipient of the Illamvaahai Award was Menan Nagulendran. Menan was one of the athletes who played for Team Tamileelam in the VIVA F.A. Tournament in Kurdistan, and scored the historic first goal for Team Tamileelam.
