    I'm sure you already have the list of her popular songs from Thiruvilaiyaadal. (Jeans ninaivukku varuthaa? ))

    She also acted in the movie Thirumalai Deivam as Narayanamma and sung two songs in that movie:

    Naallellaam unthan thirunaalaam

    Eizhumazhai irukka namakkenna manakavalei


    She has sung a couple of social songs and these include:

    Arithu arithu maanidanaai pirappathu arithu

    Thappiththu sendraanammaa


    On another note, I tend to confuse between AR Ramani Ammal and KB Sunderambal. Anyone else do this? )

    another interesting thing about KBS is she acted as nandanar (for whom thenandi gave way for dharshan).
    Yesterday's avvai shanmugan(m) ) , got 1 lakh rupees as her sal for that movie.
    One of the calculations made by an unknown (to me)person ,says ,today that amount is worth 13 crores.(mind u ,Rajnikanth gets a meagre 1.25 crores when compared to this).
    sorry for the digression.

    KBS was born in 1907 in a place called "paaNdi kodumudi", a place near
    Karur. Her family was extremely poor. Looking at her exceptional talent
    for singing (even at an age of 5), the Karur DSP, Mr RS Krishnaswamy
    got her into a drama troupe at an early age. KBS became a very famous
    drama actress at a very young age. At the same period, SG Kittappa was
    considered as the best drama actor. They got a chance to act together
    in stage, in Sri Lanka, in the 1920's. Right from that first meeting,
    it was instant love between them. They got married and became an inseparable
    acting pair. aanaal, vidhi yaarai vittadhu? SGK died in 1933. KBS was
    completely shattered by this, took to the traditional widow costume,
    and vowed not to act with any hero after that. She also started concentrating
    only on devotional themes after that. The famous freedom fighter,
    Sathyamurthy convinced her to come back to acting. She acted as
    'Nandhanar' in 1935. She was paid a staggering 1 lakh for acting in
    this movie (equivalent to several crores of today, as Shankar pointed out).
    KBS was well known for singing in high pitches. She acted as
    'Manimekalai' in 1940, as `Avvaiyaar` (Gemini productions) in 1953,
    as kaundhi adigaL in 'Poompuhar' in 1964, as Avvaiyaar in 'Thiruvilaiyadal'
    in 1965, as an old lady in 'Mahakavi Kalidas' in 1966, as Avvaiyaar
    in 'Kandhan Karunai' in 1967, in 'Uyir Mel Asai' in 1967, in 'Thunaivan'
    in 1969, in 'Karaikkaal Ammaiyaar' in 1973, and, finally, in 'Thirumalai
    Dheivam' in 1973. These were the only 11 movies in which KBS acted. KBS
