Judge,

1) ARR's talent far outshines any film Shekar has done. It was his music in Dil Se that fascinated ALW and not his association with Shekar Kapur. By the time Bombay Dreams came in, ARR was a national icon and certainly international if you count his reach in other countries where Bollywood music is popular. Here is how recommendation works. IR gave Nanda to YSR. I doubt ALW was responsible for the other international projects ARR did, or will do in the future. ARR came up solely due to his work/talent.

2) When MR wanted to join the cine field, he didn't go to GV. He approached other producers and did small movies. He gave a blockbuster film in 86 and followed up with hits till 92. He as a director gained more popularity and GV was more popular as maniratnam's bro until Mani did films for him.

MR was lucky in the sense that he came in the 80s. One can overcome a couple of flops. But that's not the case nowadays, for anyone. I am surprised at the suggestion. GV as a producer became popular in the 90's, but pls correct me if I am wrong on that.

Musicislife,

Talent can be taught. Why else would we have horrible actors that are popular stars? It just takes about ten years to learn the trick. Then they become talented. It's just a fact that IR's children are in the field due to him and though YSR is popular(so was Deva at one time), the other 2 are surviving on his name. I am not questioning KR's musical knowledge, but his output as far as film songs are concerned, have never been appreciated by the mass. Likewise, that Bhavatharini is a poor singer is not a secret. But she won a national award. Goes to show, you don't really need much talent, at least, in today's film industry.
