 Hariharan
took the Indian musical scene by storm in 1996
with his phenomenally successful "Colonial
Cousins" album, a collaborative effort with
Leslie Lewis. This Indian-English fusion album,
which consistently topped the Indian musical
charts in 1996 and even became the first Indian
act to be featured on MTV Unplugged, won Hariharan
the international fame that had eluded him in his
more than 15-year career as a recording
artiste.
Born in Bombay on April 3rd,
1955, Hariharan has bachelors degrees in science
and law. The son of renowned Carnatic vocalists,
the late Ananthasubramani ("H. A. S. Mani")
from Trivandrum and Shrimati Alamelu, Hariharan
naturally inherited his parents' musical talents.
Mom was Hariharan's first guruji. From her he
picked up Carnatic music skills.
Trained
both in Carnatic and Hindustani music, this
Tamilian from Bombay first made his mark in an
unconventional way -- as a ghazal singer. But his
fame was restricted to a small coterie of ghazal
fans. Hariharan has also long sung for Hindi films
and for Tamil films since 1993 but, ironically, it
was an album in which he has sung in English that
catapulted him to the heights of fame. Since that
success, there has been no turning back; acclaim
after acclaim followed. Hariharan is now the most
sought after film singer in Chennai. Mumbai's
filmdom has also re-discovered him. In 1998,
Hariharan received the prestigious Indian National
Film Award for "Best Male Singer" for
the Hindi song Mere
dushman mere bhai from the movie
"Border".
