Mamtha Mohandas was an instant hit as a singer and became a household name even before the release of her debut film Yama Donga. After Yamadonga, she never looked back. She is busy with plenty of offers now. “ I am trained in classical music. I have always had the habit of humming snatches of some song or the other. Devi Sri Prasad heard me one day and asked me whether I would be interested in singing. That’s how the title song of Rakhee happened. After that, I sang for Jagadam, Shankar Dada Yama Donga,”said Mamatha Mohandass.
Is it true that Devi Sri Prasad has a soft corner for you and he promotes you ever so often? “Yes, I too have heard these rumors. People started spreading rumors when my first song composed by Devi was a big hit. It is fun working with him. We share a professional relationship and nothing beyond that. Right now, I am concentrating on my work and have no time or inclination for anything else. The song would have been a hit even if some other singer sang it. I am the topic of gossip only because I happen to be an actress,” she said.
