== Career ==<br />
Krishnaswamy joined the [[A. V. Meiyappan]] unit as an assistant during the mid-1930s and worked on all AVM projects. He made his directorial debut with ''[[Sabapathy]]'' (1941) and later left AVM for personal reasons. Krishnasami made films such as ''[[Vidyapathi]]'' and ''[[Manam Oru Kurangu]]''. His most successful film was ''[[Arivaali]]'', but his own success was shortlived. His later days were spent in obscurity, and he died on the same day as [[M. G. Ramachandran]] in 1987.<ref name="atk">{{Cite news |url=https://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/Devamanohari-1951/article15502198.ece |title=Deva Manohari 1951 |last=Guy |first=Randor |date=1 January 2011 |work=[[The Hindu]] |access-date=30 December 2018 |author-link=Randor Guy |archive-date=26 February 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210226161845/https://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/Devamanohari-1951/article15502198.ece |url-status=live }}</ref><br />
