Janaki, Chithra and Ghoshal are the only singers to get the award for their works in films of three languages. Janaki was bestowed with the awards for her performances in two Tamil films: ''[[16 Vayathinile]]'' and ''[[Thevar Magan]]'' in 1978 and 1993 respectively, in 1981 for the Malayalam film ''[[Oppol]]'', and in 1985 for the Telugu film ''[[Sitaara]]''. Chithra was honoured in 1986, 1997 and 2005 for the Tamil films ''[[Sindhu Bhairavi (film)|Sindhu Bhairavi]]'', ''[[Minsara Kanavu]]'' and ''[[Autograph (2004 film)|Autograph]]'' respectively; in 1987 and 1989 for the Malayalam films ''[[Nakhakshathangal]]'' and ''[[Vaisali (film)|Vaisali]]'' respectively; and in 1998 for the Hindi film ''[[Virasat (1997 film)|Virasat]]''.

While [[Sandhya Mukhopadhyay]] and Ghoshal are the only awardees to have been recognised for their work in two films in the same year (Mukhopadhyay won in 1971 for her tracks from both the Bengali films ''Jay Jayanti'' and ''[[Nishi Padma]]''), Ghoshal continues to be the sole vocalist to have achieved this accolade for excellence in singing in two films of different languages in a single year.
