Hailing from a family of musicians where his father Ghantasala Siva Kumar played drums for nearly 700 films, mother Savitri, aunt Vasantha and wife Sri Vardhini are successful playback singers, hotshot music director SS Thaman is now ruling both Tollywood and Kollywood.
And now, it’s Thaman’s sister Yamini’s turn to go behind the microphone. This young software professional who is based in Mumbai has recently made her playback singing debut when she crooned for Anjali’s soon to be released horror flick, Chitrangada, which is also releasing in Tamil as Yaar Nee.
Apparently, the film’s father-son music composer duo Swaminathan and Selvaganesh came across some scratch tracks sung by Yamini and immediately signed her to sing a romantic duet in Yaar Nee. The recording was completed recently in Chennai and the audio album will be released in either February end or in early March.
