Veteran playback singer P B Srinivas died on Sunday following a brief illness, family sources said.
Srinivas (82) was not keeping well for the past few days and breathed his last at his CIT Nagar residence here, they said.
Srinivas is survived by two sons and daughter.
Popularly known as PBS, the veteran singer lent his voice in all four South Indian languages besides Hindi.
He was the playback singer behind Kannada superstar Rajkumar and Tamil veteran Gemini Ganesan.
In fact, it is believed that Srinivas's gentle voice suited Ganesan best. The duo produced some of the most memorable Tamil songs together including 'Kaalangalil Aval Vasantham' and 'Mayakkama Kalakkama' among many others.
A native of Andhra Pradesh, his last song was in Tamil film 'Ayirathil Oruvan' in 2010.
Srinivas was honoured with various awards including the state government's Kalaimamani Award.
