A big setback to Tollywood with the passing away of renowned lyricist, Kulasekhar. He made his debut with Teja’s Chitram and went on to pen numerous iconic songs. He breathed his last passed at Gandhi Hospital in Hyderabad due to health complications on Wednesday 27 November.
Simhachalam, Vizag, born, Kulasekhar embarked on his career as a journalist with Eenadu before transitioning to the film industry as a lyricist.
