Talking exclusively to ANI, Akshay recalled the singer's work in his films and said, "He was part of my career, he was part of my lots of songs. He had sung an important song, 'Tu Bhoola Jise', for 'Airlift' also. It was because of that song the climax was sounding so good."
"It was a very shocking thing what happened last night. It's very sad that we are losing a lot of our singers and it happened at a very young age," he added.
Earlier, Akshay had condoled KK's demise in a tweet by writing, "Extremely sad and shocked to know of the sad demise of KK. What a loss! Om Shanti ."
Born in New Delhi to C S Menon and Kunnath Kanakavalli on August 23, 1968, KK was an alumnus of Delhi's Mount St Mary's School. Following his college, KK reportedly had a short stint as a marketing associate in the hotel industry after which he shifted to Mumbai to pursue a career in music.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Akshay is currently busy working on several projects including 'Selfie' and remake of Suriya's 'Soorarai Pottru'.
