Kattassery Augustine Joseph (24 March 1912 – 3 February 1965) was an Indian classical musician and stage actor from Kerala, India. He was the father of Indian playback singer K. J. Yesudas[3] and grandfather of singer Vijay Yesudas.[4]
Life
He was born in a Latin Catholic family in Kochi.[5] He started training in music and acting at a very young age.[6] He had sung many songs and acted in many plays. He believed in Oneness among religion and there is only One Supreme God though called by different names. He has brought up Yesudas in similar school of thought.[7] He died of a suspected heart attack aged 53 in 1965. Yesudas, his son, later said in an interview that he had faced lot of money problems during this period and when his father died, the hospital authorities told him to give Rs. 1000/-.[8] It was the famous lyricist P. Bhaskaran who helped him during this period.[9] He was buried according to his wish at Kochi.[10]
