H. Sridhar, a popular Sound Engineer who has been involved in over a thousand songs passed away this morning at around 8 am due to a massive heart attack. The Sound Engineer had been part of A. R. Rahman's team right from the onset. He was 50.
Having been closely associated with director's Mani Ratnam, K. Balachander, Bharathiraaja, Shankar, Kamal Haasan, P. C. Sreeram, Priyadarshan and Ramgopal Varma, H. Sridhar was a towering icon when it came to mixing music.
H. Sridhar was the recipient of the prestigious President's Gold Medal (National Award for best Audiography) four times for the films 'Mahanadhi', 'Dil Se', 'Lagaan' and 'Kannathil Muthamilttal'.
Sridhar was so talented and was sought after by the likes of George Harrision (a member of the famous Beatles), Pandit Ravi Shankar, Zakir Hussain and John McLaughlin to mix music for their albums.
This true talent will surely be missed by the music fraternity.
