Born in 1920, Sangeetha Kalanidhi R K Srikantan hails from a traditional family of musicians in Rudrapatnam in Karnataka. His father, late Krishna Sastry, was a scholar, artist and Harikatha vidwan. His grandfather, Narayanappa of Bettadapura, was also a musician and a close friend of Veena Seshanna of Mysore. Srikantan was initiated into music by his father and later by his brother R K Venkataramasastry, a leading violinist.

He has been performing for over 6 decades throughout the length and breadth of the country in several sabhas and festival series. He has toured USA many times as well. Some of his disciples are Rudrapatnam Ramakanth, M S Sheela and T S Sathyavathi.

Sri Srikantan has been a recipient of many awards and titles including the prestigious Sangeetha Kalanidhi, and the Annual Music Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement in the field of Carnatic Classical music by SVN Music Academy, Bangalore. In 2003 he has been honored with Sangeetha Ratnakara award from Cleveland Aradhana Committee.
