==Writing==
Sreeraman's stories were intelligently told and suffused with humanism. The breadth of his experience as a lawyer and government official helped him create a richly imaginative body of work. He drew upon a rich and varied source of imagery and subject matter. His works include ''Puthuma Illathavarude Nagaram, Chidambaram, Kshurasyadhara, Theerthakkavadi, Dukhitarude Dukham, Puramkazhchakal, Vasthuhara, Chakshu Sravanagalasthamam, Pondhan Mada, Sheema Thampuran'' and ''Entosy Valiamma''. His stories were translated into English and German, and several Indian languages, including Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Kannada, Telugu, Marathi and Oriya.<ref name="The Hindu obituary"/> The visual quality of his narration attracted filmmakers. ''[[Vasthuhara]]'', ''[[Chidambaram (film)|Chidambaram]]'' ([[G. Aravindan]]), ''Purushartham'' ([[K. R. Mohanan]]) and ''[[Ponthan Mada]]'' ([[T. V. Chandran]]) were based on Sreeraman's stories.<ref name="The Hindu obituary"/>

Later an anthology of his short stories, 'Mokshartham', got published. The 13 stories in this book revolve around life in pilgrimage destinations.
