Musical careerEdit

His uncle, Kidambi Krishnaswamy, was a drama artist and a singer. When Sreenivas was 12, Krishnaswamy gave him a chance to sing in a drama. Later, Sreenivas, a trained harmonium player and singer, went to Gemini Studios, Madras. Emani Sankara Sastry, a veena player, was one of the residing musicians. He introduced Sreenivas to S. S. Vasan, the owner of Gemini Studios. There, Sreenivas sang a super hit song sung by Mohammed Rafi, his favourite singer. It was "Huye Hum Jinke Liye Barbad", from Deedar (1951), composed by Naushad Ali, which landed him the opportunity to become professional playback singer.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>Madhurya Sarvabhouma Dr.P.B.Srinivos - Nadayogiya sunaadayaana by R.

Voice of Dr. RajkumarEdit

PBS has sung at least 300 super hit numbers for Rajkumar. The actor once described Sreenivas as his Shàreera (voice in Kannada) while he himself was a mere Sharira (body in Kannada), summing up how some of the best-known films of the actor are unimaginable without Sreenivas lending his voice.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Until 1974, Sreenivas was Rajkumar's most frequent singing voice in films. However, once when Sreenivas was not available to sing for the movie Sampattige Sawaal, Composer G K Venkatesh encouraged Rajkumar to sing the song Yaare Koogadali that was supposed to be sung by Sreenivas. With that song, Rajkumar restarted his singing career, which had stopped after the movie Ohileshwara. Thus began his journey as the most famous actor-singer that Kannada film industry has ever seen.<ref>Dr. Rajkumar Biography, Dr. Rajkumar Profile - entertainment.oneindia.in</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
