Music came into being through the peasants who hummed tunes while working. This tradition still continues in the villages of India. That music is considered to be the purest and the most ancient form of Music. Chinna Ponnu is the pioneer of that Folk Music. Born in the small village of Suranam in Sivagangai district of Tamil Nadu, she was a child protégée in devotional music. She started performing in temple festivals and churches when she was 13 years old. Soon afterwards, she began singing professionally in the troupe of fellow folk artist Kottaisamy, whom she credits as a mentor. In 2004, she broke into the Tamil film industry as a playback singer with the song "Vazhthuren Vazhthuren" in the hit film Chandramukhi.
