She is named as 'The nightingale of south India' and no doubt, she is the best Indian female playback singer in the past 2-3 decades, after Lataji and Ashaji. She still holds a record of winning maximum National Awards for the best female playback singer catagory, winning 6 till now, 30 state awards of different languages and 5 filmfare awards(South).
She still holds the record of winning 11 state awards of Kerala from 1985 to 1995 successively , almost a non-breakable record. One and half years ago she lost her only child on a Vishu day, that she got after 15 years and we people thought, we have lost her forever. To get out those memories, she is involving herself in playback singing and a reality singing show which she was hosting before and last year again, she got a state award.
Let us all congratulate her for her success and pray to God to give her mind enough strength to get over every difficult situations of her life.
