Even in the recently uploaded 80s show videos, Ilayaraja clearly refers to the film he did with MSV anna. He never referred to them as solely his creations. I have watched the film and right at the beginning, there is a photo showing IR and MSV happily working together. Ignorance is not a plea in the eyes of the law, or common sense for that matter. It's ok not to know only up to the point that one doesn't foolishly jump to criticise someone for something he did not do.

Re: Maniacs, here's an old Hindu interview where Rahman himself clearly says he was only an operator and NOT composer of the PM theme.
http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~kailasan/interviews/perfection%20is%20his%20key%20to%20success.htm

When the duplicity and naked lying of the maniac who happens to be the source of this popular internet rumour was thoroughly exposed, to the extent that he was well aware of this interview and still continued to wilfully spread these rumours all over the internet, I surveyed a few maniacs n twitter thus: In light of recent revelations, do you *still* believe ARR *composed* PM theme? a) Yes, b) No, c) Can't say.

3 maniacs refused to answer, I got only 1 direct response and guess what, it was c) rotfl2

On why HCARRFs exhibit such behaviour, it might have something to do with the fact that ARR's personal saintliness is central to the faith, so thy have to live in denial about their idol's err, many unsaintly statements and manipulations that are coming to light slowly. Of course there are many who don't feel compelled to believe the sainthood narrative, and those are the normal, sane ARR fans as opposed to maniacs.

And most of such ones also happen to appreciate IR's music at one time or other, per my observation Smile

(e.g. our own DM)

The insane ones have the compulsive behaviour of hate for IR. (That is why I'm wondering - if there's any connection between what you feed thru ears for years and how you behave in life Wink

)

And I have a few HCARRF friends who don't believe in the ARR sainthood narrative who enjoy IR's music quite a lot (they may/may not like the man or his talk but I think I can understand that) and discern the man from the music and make it a point to respect his music.

They have some Vinyl covers of lesser known Illayaraja Films (Padikkatha Pannaiyar, Muththu Engal Soththu, Meendum Parasakthi, Andha Sila Natkal, Ezhuthatha Sattangal, and some Ramarajan movies. I dont remember seeing these covers in this thread.

hifivision forum (http://www.hifivision.com/) also has some vinyl covers. (but you got to go through those long posts)

Interesting to see Kannadasan's name in the soundtrack as lyricist for one of the songs. (Of course, both the big hits oru nAL unnOdu oru nAL & nenachchathellAm nadakkappORa were by PA).

Now Manivannan.

When Motherland pictures launched their second project, iLamaikkAlangaL, IR gave them laddoos. (I kept posting every now and then that R Sundarrajan was possibly the director when songs got composed and then ran away. The same had also been mentioned in a blog by a KH fan...world movies fan or something like that).

Either way, this disk cover does not mention any director, while listing a bunch of Kovai area film personalities, like Sirumugai Ravi etc. It was after the songs becoming huge hits that Manivannan was brought in, to build a story around it and release as a movie. And the movie was a moderate hit...

There's an interesting update on this movie, thanks to a twitter discussion between Chokkan & Rajini Rams.

This is the link for the tweets :
https://twitter.com/rajinirams/status/618265213050077184

Rajini Rams possibly got in touch with his "industry contact" (may be GA or VM) and got the answer for the movie's director at the time of composing :
Sirumugai Ravi.
(Yes, the same guy who directed rAgangaL mARuvadhaillai and IR gave nice songs to that movie too but IK was something phenomenal even by IR standards IMHO - especially pAda vandhadhO & isai mEdaiyil).

Today I found the Shree Meenakshi Stothram Vinyl record. Haven't got time to listen, attaching the cover pics. It doesn't allow me to attach the file (exceeds 0 KB !!!) hence the link. In the back cover IR looks divine !

Why no stereo recording during mid 80's, though Priya came in 1979

Very good question - in my mind for quite long time as well.

Industry insiders can talk about this - any tech issues / budget issues / some production facilities not equipped kind of limitations...
