^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.
Krishnakumar Kunnath (23 August 1968 – 31 May 2022), popularly known as KK , was an Indian playback singer. He recorded songs primarily in Hindi , Tamil , Telugu and Kannada language. Noted for his versatility in a variety of music genres,[ 1] KK is regarded among the greatest playback singers of India. He was a recipient of two Screen Awards , along with nominations for six Filmfare Awards .[ 2] [ 3]
KK received the Screen Awards for Best Singer – Male (non-film music) for his song "Pal" and Screen Award for Best Male Playback for "Khuda Jaane", from the film Bachna Ae Haseeno.[ 4] In a Hindustan Times interview, KK was asked if he was bothered by being nominated for a number of awards but seldom winning. He said no: "As a singer, I haven't felt any lesser by not getting an award. Winning or not winning an award doesn't affect me. I just like to do my work in the best possible manner. I am happy getting good songs. I am happy not getting awards."[ 5]
