While not much seems to be known of Krishna Kumar's murder, we do know
that he and his brother Surya Kumar had been trained by Madam Azurie,
and also partnered her in many films including the 1944 film Rattan
where he did the song "O Janewale Balamwa", which was a popular song of
the times. In an interview she gave to Screen in 1980, Madam Azurie gave
the back story of the brothers, both orphans, who went originally by
the name of Tony and Robert. Only later they adopted the screen names of
Krishna Kumar and Surya Kumar.
