Brindha Sivakumar (born March 3, 1980) is an Indian singer and voice artist who works in Tamil-language films. She is the daughter of actor Sivakumar and the younger sister of actors Suriya and Karthi.
While Brindha was studying grade 10, Karthik Raja called her for a recording, but Brindha declined the offer since her board exams were near.[1] She made her debut as a playback singer with Mr. Chandramouli (2018).[2][3] Brindha sang the title track for the film. She was called to sing a song for the film after Dhananjayan, a family friend and the film's producer, listened to her voice while she was singing a prayer song for Agaram Foundation.[1][4] She went on to sing a song in Raatchasi (2019).[5][6] In a review of the soundtrack by The Times of India, the reviewer wrote that "The second song, Nee Yen Nanbanae, is ... a soothing melody sung by Brindha Sivakumar".[7] Her next song was in the film Jackpot (2019) and a critic from The Times of India stated that "Sinduri Vishal and Brindha Sivakumar have gone full throttle to bring out the energy in the number without letting the tempo slip even a wee bit".[8]
Brindha's father, Sivakumar; brothers, Suriya and Karthi; and sister-in-law, Jyothika; are all actors who work in the Tamil film industry.[1] In 2005, Brindha married a granite industrialist who shares the same name as her father, Sivakumar.[9] They have a son and daughter.[10]
