Renowned Indian singer Krishnakumar Kunnath 'KK' is no more.

​​​​He passed away shortly after performing live in Kolkata on Tuesday, and reportedly breathed his last at Nazrul Mancha in Kolkata.

The reported reason of his death was heart attack.

Condolences have been pouring in since the demise of the popular singer. Meanwhile, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to social media to express condolences.

The demised singer had crooned songs in many languages including Bengali, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Assamese, and primarily Hindi.
