Personal life and career

Devi Sri Prasad was born as Gandham Sriprasad in Vedurupaka, Andhra Pradesh into a Telugu speaking family.[10] His father Gandham Satyamurthy was a writer in Telugu cinema who has penned popular films like Devatha, Khaidi No. 786, and Pedarayudu.[11] He grew up in Madras (now Chennai) and attended M. Venkata Subba Rao School in T. Nagar.

In his debut music album Dance Party, he collaborated with veteran singer SP Balasubrahmanyam’s son S. P. Charan. He debuted in the 1999 Telugu film Devi as a film music composer. Contrary to popular belief that 'Devi' was prefixed to his name after his debut film, he was named after his maternal grandparents, Devi Meenakshi, and Prasada Rao.[12]

He has one younger sister and one younger brother, Gandham Sagar who is a playback singer. Their father, Gandham Satyamurthy, died in December 2015.
