S P BALASUBRAMANYAM - WE WILL MISS YOU
S P Balasubramanyam - The Man With A Golden Voice
Having sung over 16,000 songs in different Indian languages, S P Balasubramanyam's contribution to Indian film industry is hard to forget. Amidst cacophony produced by day today thunder and protests here and there we could not earlier pen a thought or two on S P Balasubramanyam whose vocal chords won laurels across the world.
ETV Telugu and ETV Andhra Pradesh channels frequently showed performances by various artists including S P Balasubramanyam or S.P.B. or Balu as he was fondly called who had a magical touch to the songs he sang. It would be appropriate to confer Bharat Ratna on S P Balasubramanyam and sooner a decision is taken the better it would be. The Indian film industry has lost its poster boy and a man who with his charm won million hearts. Besides being a playback singer he was music director, actor and film producer who worked tirelessly for Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi film industry. Balu was a multi tasker and man who would remain etched in our thoughts for long. Most of the devotional songs played in Tirumala in praise of Lord Govinda has Balu's touch and something that we can't forget.
