5 hrs from Shoranur? It takes atleast 3 hrs to reach Nilambur, then 1.5 hrs till Nadukani.. Then another 2.5-3 hours via Gudalur-Gundlupet. Total of 7-8 hours minimum (if in a KSRTC bus)..
And btw, Manorama aayakalam muthale MYS-KCVL paranjond irikuarnu.. Humsafar vannapo nirthi.. Ipo veendum kuthipokki.. Athanu sherikum nadannath.
