Mg sreekumar, the profile of a maestro
I personally have had the privilege to sing more than 3000 songs across a number of films in Malayalam, Tamil, Hindi and Telugu. I have had the rare honour of conducting the music direction on many cassettes that include devotional ones for Ayappa, Jesus Christ, and Allah. Parallel to this, I have also done the same for a number of festival-based themes including Onam. Along with these interests, I also have my own cassette company called KMG Music. At the age of 37, I was bestowed the National Award in 1990 for my work in music. This was a crest in my career as it brought to fulfillment a number of aspirations and dreams of my family. Recognition came in other ways too as I won the Kerala state awards in 1989, 90 and 91 also. If you ask me which song established me in my career, definitely it was the song 'Nadroopini' in the Malayalam film 'His Highness Abdulla' This piece elevated my status to that of a singer of National repute. But the proverbial break-through in my career came through the song 'Kanneerpoovite' in the film 'Kiridom' which won me a number of state and private awards, and more importantly be finally taken seriously by the critics. By the grace of God, recently I am once again awarded the National award for the best play back singer for the song Chandu Pottum.. in the film "Vasanthe Lakhsmi Pinne Injanum".I have never yearned for a complicated life. I am quite a simple man at heart who enjoys the purity of life. My ambition is to be remembered by history as a classical vocalist who has contributed something worthwhile to the art of classical music - something that will be cherished for generations of music lovers and enthusiasts.
