Two years since KK left us, his evergreen tunes still echo in our hearts! Celebrate his music journey and Google’s heartfelt tribute with us!

The music world lost a gem when Krishnakumar Kunnath, affectionately known as KK, passed away unexpectedly during a live performance in Kolkata. A beloved Bollywood playback singer, KK was known for his soulful voice that could move mountains and bring tears to the eyes. But before he touched the hearts of millions with his music, he walked a different path as a salesman. It’s a remarkable journey that showcases his determination and passion, transcending the mundane to touch the divine through song.

As we mark the two-year anniversary of his passing, we remember the circumstances surrounding his death. Reports mention ‘hypoxia’ following Acute Cardiogenic Pulmonary Oedema, but what mattered most was the legacy he left behind. His songs didn’t just play; they resonated deeply within listeners, becoming the soundtrack of countless lives. His powerful ballads such as "Pal" and "Tadap Tadap" are still turned to for solace and celebration alike, solidifying his status as a musical icon.

Recently, Google honored KK’s remarkable journey with a stunning doodle celebrating the anniversary of his Bollywood debut. His entry into the industry was marked by the touching song "Chhod Aaye Hum" from the film *Maachis*, which marked the beginning of a phenomenal career that spanned over two decades. This tribute is not just about nostalgia; it’s a reminder of his lasting influence on Bollywood music that continues to inspire both new and seasoned artists in the industry.

The Google Doodle, a modern-day homage, highlights how KK’s impact continues to be felt in today’s music landscape. His ability to convey emotions through music was unparalleled, and his contribution to Indian cinema will forever be cherished. As we reflect on his journey, let’s not forget how he infused life into lyrics, making each note a memory etched in our hearts.

### Did You Know? KK had his roots in various genres, blending pop, rock, and ghazal to create a distinctive style. His command of emotions might stem from the fact that he sang over 3,500 jingles before making it big in playback singing!

### A Little More About KK's Songs Many of KK's tracks achieved cult status, with "Yaaron Dosti Badi Hi Haseen Hai" becoming a popular anthem for friendship. Even after his departure, the lyrics of his songs resonate with fans across the globe, reminding us that while he may be gone, his music will always play on!
