G.K. Venkatesh (Composer, Singer)

(1927-93) Prolific Kannada composer. Entered film as a child actor. Assistant to music directors S. Venkatraman and Vishwanathan-Ramamurthy. Early film scores in collaboration with Padmanabha Sastry, e.g. T.V. Singh Thakore’s Sodari. This film was followed by a series of Thakore and G.V. Iyer productions, often starring Rajkumar. Set several of Iyer’s lyrics to music and scored almost all Rajkumar’s major musical hits. Known for emphatic scores which remain identified with the emotional intensity of Kannada mythologicals and melodramas. Also worked successfully on Kannada variations of the James Bond sub-genre (Goadalli CID 999; Operation Diamond Rocket), Sathyu’s offbeat fantasy, Chithegu Chinthe, and Rajendra Singh’s vendetta thriller, Antha. He sang in e.g. Karanth’s Chomana Dudi (1975). Superstar composer Ilaiyaraja started as his assistant but later employed him.
