Happy B'day for SPB
The man with a melancholy voice, who has sung over 30000 songs in various Indian languages celebrated his birthday on 4 June. Though he turned 60, his voice still fits those actors in teens.
A prolific Indian singer affectionately called SPB developed an interest in music very early in his life. Balasubramanyam made his debut in film music as a singer in 1966 with Sri Sri Sri Maryada Ramanna, a film scored by his mentor Kodandapani. He holds the Guinness record for having sung the most number of song recordings by any single male singer (the corresponding record for a female singer is held by Lata Mangeshkar).
SPB, who welcomes modern technology in music making as it enhances both speed and results, is a multi-faceted personality. A singer, actor, producer and a music composer, he is the only singer to have sung for actors spanning three generations.
Winner of many a national awards and other accolades, he says he has still a lot to achieve. Something the young singers should emulate.
Let's pray that he stays healthy for many more years and serve the film industry well.
