Finally, Chithra found and met the child prodigy, Rukmini, who is just two and a half years old. The singer shared her excitement in meeting the kid, who picks up difficult Malayalam songs though she doesn't speak much. The six-time National Award winning singer has also wished Rukmini to be the next Lata Mangeshkar. However, the kid refused to sing before Chithra.
Hi Friends
Recently I met Rukmini the little baby who sang my song 'Manjal Prasadavum' which became viral. I was so amazed to be with a child prodigy. Just 30 months old speaks very little. Picks up difficult songs and she is pitch perfect. She refused to sing in front of me though...
God bless her with 'Ayurarogyasaukhyam" and let us have a Lata Mangeshkar..
Meanwhile, after becoming an Internet sensation by singing Chithra's hit song from the 1986 movie Nakhakshathangal, Rukmini also was praised by singer G Venugopal for rendering her voice for his popular track Chandana Manivathil from the film Marikkunnilla Njan. He had then shared the video of the young talent, who had then sung the melody with its background music.
Here are the viral videos of Rukmini:
