Noted South Indian playback singer, Sangeetha Sajith, passed away in Thiruvananthapuram on Sunday morning.

Sangeetha was undergoing treatment for kidney-related ailments for quite some time and passed away at her sister’s residence. She was 46.

The noted playback singer was active in Malayalam, Tamil, Kannada and Telugu movies. She has sung over 200 songs in the South Indian languages.

Her song ‘Thannerai Kathalikkuma’ in the Tamil movie ‘Mr Romeo’ composed by AR Rahman was a big hit.

The theme song for Prithviraj-starrer ‘Kuruthi’ was her last song in a Malayalam movie.

Her funeral will be held at Shanthikavadam public crematorium at Thycaud, Thiruvananthapuram in the evening.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
