I too heard that she was extremely talented and posed a serious threat to MS and MLV, but unfortunately died at a very early age. I don't know about the suicide issue though.
Her 'En PaLLi KoNdeeraiyaa Sri Ranganatha' is a gem and it used to be a regular number on Ceylon Radio.
"TFM Stories and Titbits" may have more info. Did you check this thread, Raghavan?

N.C. Vasanthakokilam died at an early age around 1950. At that time we lived in Nagappattinam where she grew up. The talk of the town was that she could have overshadowed MS had she lived long enough. Who knows?
She popularised many of Sudhdhaanandha Bharathi's songs as DKP popularised Subramanya Bharathiyar's songs, in the late 40s.
Vasanthakokilam acted in about half a dozen movies:
Chandra Gupta Chaanakyaa
Venugaanam
Kundalakesi
Haridas
Valmiki
Krishna vijayam
Gangavathar
Unfortunately not much of her songs are available in CDs or audio cassettes. Even those available seem to mix both cinema songs and carnatic compositions that were concert pieces.
I will post all songs that I know of to perpetuate her memory.
Some of her songs that became very popular are:
yen paLLi koNdeer ayyaa
thanthai thaai irundhaal umakkindha
nitiraiyil vandhu nenjil idam
Please post whatever you can recall!

'nee dhayaradha' is my favorite (apart from 'yen paLLi' & 'thanthai thaai'). Just compare it with KJY version in sindhu bairavi.

( The original composition by Gopalakrishna Bharathi was modified in two lines to suit the movie. The line that mentions the thevaram trinity and maanikkavasagar is also deleted. It is sung in Jonpuri. But, the compilation of Gopalakrishna Bharathi's compositions specifies Kamas.)
