About this person
Mayavaram Krishnasamy Thiyagaraja Bhagavathar, also known by his initials M. K. T., was an Indian actor and carnatic singer. Critics and film historians acknowledge Bhagavathar as the first superstar of Tamil cinema. Bhagavathar was born in the town of Mayiladuthurai in then-Tanjore district of the Madras Presidency, British Raj. He started his career as a classical singer and stage artist in the late 1920s. In 1934, he made his debut in films with the hit movie Pavalakkodi. From 1934 to 1960, Bhagavathar acted in 14 films of which 10 were box-office hits.
