Mysore/Mysuru: City’s well-known art patron and industrialist
K.V. Murthy passed away due to age-related illness at his residence in Jayalakshmipuram in the wee hours of today. He was 90.
A philanthropist and a revered connoisseur of music and dance, there is hardly any cultural body in Mysuru with which K.V. Murthy was not associated with. He had created his own world of art and culture.
His passion for music turned him to be a patron of various music and performing arts organisations. Not a cultural programme was held, perhaps, without his presence as chief guest.
