After performing for the concert, well-known Bollywood vocalist Krishnakumar Kunnath, widely known as KK, died in Kolkata on Tuesday night. He was just 53 years old when he died. He was probably one of India’s best singers, whose career spans multiple entertainment industries including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia, Bengali, Assamese, and Gujarati.

It’s impossible that you or anybody else hasn’t heard any of his songs. That’s just impossible! He made so many masterpieces throughout his remarkable career, from Tadap Tadap from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (1999) to Piya Aaye Na from Aashiqui 2 (2013). As a consequence, he has received many allocates in his life.

However, the news of his death came as a shock to everyone. Since then, many individuals have expressed their heartfelt condolences to him.

How did KK died and under what circumstances

One thing which is widely discussed is how he suddenly died and under what circumstances he did. Till now, we know that he died because of suspected sudden cardiac arrest but many indicators tell us that he didn’t suddenly die.

KK was reportedly sick throughout the event, according to sources. During the intermission, he complained of being uneasy, but he continued to perform to finish the event. He was then brought to a five-star hotel in Esplanade, where his condition began to deteriorate, and he died before reaching the hospital.

Around 10.45 p.m., he was confirmed dead at the private CMRI hospital in Alipore. On receiving the news, his admirers and members of the music industry flocked to the hospital.

Fans blaming concert authorities for his death

Let me inform you that Gurudas College organized this concert and the singer was in town for a two-day performance and he was supposed to return to Delhi on Wednesday. Hours before his death, KK also uploaded images from the show. He wrote,

“Pulsating gig tonight at Nazrul Mancha. Vivekananda College !! Love you all.”

Since his death, fans of singer KK have started uploading videos from his most recent show, which took place in Kolkata on Tuesday. In a couple of videos, he can also be seen sweating considerably on stage, wiping his face with a towel, and grumbling about the venue’s air conditioning.

Officials also stated he was “feeling heavy” when he arrived at his hotel and immediately fell. They said he was rushed to a neighbouring private hospital, where physicians confirmed him dead. While the singer’s remains are undergoing an autopsy, physicians believe a heart attack was the most likely cause of death.

While many fans noted that KK appeared ‘fit’ during his recent performance, several also criticised the event organizers for failing to provide adequate air conditioning at the location. With his tweet, one admirer included a video with the caption, saying,

“AC wasn’t working at Nazrul Mancha. he performed their and complained abt it bcoz he was sweating so badly..it wasn’t an open auditorium. watch it closely u can see the way he was sweating, closed auditorium, over crowded, Legend had to go due to authority’s negligence. Not KK.”
