Malgudi Subha (also spelled as Malgadi Shuba) is an Indian playback singer. She has recorded songs in Tamil, Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi.[1] In a career spanning two decades, she sang more than 3000 songs.[2]
She counts Usha Uthup among her role models. She is a great fan of Kishore Kumar.[3]
She began her career by providing vocals for ad jingles composed by people like A. R. Rahman and Viji Manuel.[2] She debuted as a playback singer in the film Nadodi Thendral, with music by Ilayaraja.[2] Prominent Indian composer A. R. Rahman's debut album, Set Me Free (also called Shubhaa Set Me Free), had all its songs sung by Malgudi Shubha.[4] The album, which was released in the early 1990s by some local labels, went unnoticed, but became a good seller when it was re-released in 1996 by the label Magnasound.[4]
Her first successful Telugu album, Chikpak Chikbhum, which was released in Chennai, sold ten lakh copies.[5] The songs were composed by Raj-Koti, under whom A. R. Rahman was assisted.
She has appeared as a judge on the Malayalam language music competition program Idea Star Singer. She is a judge in Star Singer 2 (Kannada), airing on Asianet Suvarna from 7-8 pm on weekdays. She is also a judge in the Tamil music competition program Super Singer in Star Vijay.
The South Indian actress Priyamani is her niece.[6]
