Srinivas 'Srini' is an award winning playback singer who has sung over 2000 songs in Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi. He is also a music composer.
In 1988, Srinivas approached music director Ilaiyaraaja, who was at the helm of Tamil film music then. He was offered the opportunity to work with Ilaiyaraaja, but however things did not work out, as he was suffering from severe throat infection that day.
It was later in 1992, that the soundtrack of Mani Ratnam's Tamil film Roja reignited his dreams of playback singing. Mani Ratnam had introduced composer A. R. Rahman with this movie, who then went on to change the music scene on the whole Indian film industry.
