  Chitra was introduced by Illayaraja? Ohh. it should be for a non-Tamil 
song then, coz Chitra Sivaraman's 1st Tamil break is indeed with ARR, but not 
with Nedhukitten, Athini Pathini - Tenali.

 Thanks for the corrections. . I had mentioned Hariharan and Sonu Nigam as I

 believed they were introduced by AR in tamil.. yes Shrinivas' first song was

 Sorgam yenbadhu from Nammavar.. He has always been one of

 my favorite singers.. kaisi hai yeh ruth from dil chahta hai is one of his

 best..

 

 Here are few corrections

 Sayanora's first song is from tamil film Madurai..

 Nendukittaen is not Chitra Sivaraman's first.. she has sung earlier for

 Ilayaraja..

 Here are some of the tamil Singers who have got breakthroughs from ARR,
 with more details. And in those list the ARR introduced
 T K Karthik
 Devan Ekambaram
 Vasundara Das

 youtube.com/nithbhas http://www.youtube.com/nithbhas
 T K Karthik

 With some of the hottest numbers in town, including two biggies from Baba,
 MCA kid-cum-playback singer, T K Karthik, is the latest hit with Tamil
 filmdom's music directors. Karthik comes from a family of bathroom singers.

 When in college, he arranged to meet singer Srinivas, who happens to be his
 best friend's cousin. To me, he was big. I am a fan of A R Rahman and
 Srinivas was his singer. He asked me to sing and liked what he heard.
 Srinivas eventually turned out to be Karthik's link to Rahman, he says.

 He remembers the dates well. It was December 17, 1999. Until then, I had
 never stepped out of home after 8 pm. But that night, my friends and I had
 planned a midnight birthday party for a friend. It turned out that Rahman
 wanted me to sing a number that night, and Srinivas kept calling home. It
 was about 11-45 pm. My parents couldn't reach me. Srinivas finally told them
 that if I was lucky, I would call him in 10 minutes. Otherwise... Somehow, I
 got in touch with home and called him immediately. It was past midnight on
 December 18''. He was just in time in Rahman's studio for the recording.

 Rahman was like my demi-God, and there he was... in front of me. I was
 nervous but Rahman helped me, cracking jokes and all. He is a lot of fun
 when you know him personally. He had been called for a chorus track for
 Pukar, which somehow was not released. It's a good sentiment, isn't it.

 From then till about two years, I was doing only choruses for Rahman. It
 got me very popular in college. On January 31, 2001, Rahman asked me and
 others in the group to sing an Aalap. Next day, he called me to record for
 Nendikitten from Star. It was his first solo. Karthik has since then done
 tracks for Ilayaraja, Harris Jayaraj, Karthik Raja, Yuvan Shankar Raja,
 Bharadwaj, Vidhyasagar, Deva and others. Most often though, he's not told
 which movie or actor he is singing for. But when I was singing for Baba, I
 knew I was singing for Rajnikanth and was very conscious. I had to get it
 right.

 Source- The Hindu, Aug 2002

 If you ask T K Karthik what the best part about being a playback singer is,
 he will talk about the countries he got to see...not the 40-odd film songs
 he has sung covering Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada movies or the bunch of
 numbers under his favourite music director A R Rahman. Tuning into Karthik
 is not very difficult. He is the boy next door, 22, once a part of a college
 band, who gradually shifted from college audi to Rahman's studio as a chorus
 member.

  I just had one recording a month in the whole of 2000, he recalls. But
 lots of stories to tell his friends after the experience. For this DG
 Vaishnav College student, things started changing after he met singer
 Srinivas. I used to keep in touch with him and he used to give me a lot of
 pointers. says Karthik. He took the tips seriously and it wasn't long
 before Srinivas put him onto Rahman.

 But when Karthik sang Nendikitten in Star, he didn't know what was
 happening. I was singing the track and had no clue if Rahman would use my
 voice, he says. Rahman finally clued him in and Karthik's solo singing
 career took off. Karthik insists life has always been like that for him -
 unplanned. He learned Carnatic music for a year and then discontinued. Then
 he joined ghazal classes. Now, it is Hindustani classical music for him, his
 teacher being noted singer Sriram Parasuram. I was always passionate about
 Hindustani music, he says. So after 13 years Karthik is learning what he
 always wanted to. I was raw when when I started, he recalls. My Carnatic
 training taught me the fundamentals, singing ghazals helped with voice
 culture and Hindustani has widened my pitch and outlook. I think it is never
 too late to learn. And all through his parents (absolute music lovers) gave
 him all the support they could. They have no clue how a recording happens.
 They just see me go out to record and come back with money, he says.

 In between the studios and stage shows, Karthik says, he managed to
 complete his B Com and is now hoping to finish a Master's at the University
 of Madras. Like he said, it's never too late to learn.

 Some of his recent numbers are Aval Ulaga Azhagiyae from Laysa Laysa, Vaada
 Machan from Run, Maya Maya and Shakthi Kodu from Baba and a number in Five
 Star.
