That's the point. If he decides to dub it in Hindi, which is a necessity in case of big budget films, he has to join with other known faces in the north. He is not a crowd-puller there, as he is in the south. That’s why he wanted Rahman for Dasavatharam itself.Quote:

The difference between Kamal and Rajini is while Rajini always tries to work with the winning horses, Kamal likes to work with the people who listens to him.
Sorry for the digression.
RK Selvamani after making 'Uzhaippali" (or was it Pandian ?) was to have done another film with Rajini - RKS insisted on IR, but Rajini was not sure of IR's market value then and insisted on Deva! RKS was adamant on IR and hence refused the film when Rajini wanted Deva coz of the then market value of Deva! I guess the said film was apparently Annamalai which went to Suresh Krishna - and Deva gave us immortal/eternal numbers like 'vandhendaa paalkaran', 'kondaiyyil thazhampoo' etc!Quote:

RKS lost the opportunity to do Baasha but Rajini couldnt get ARR (due to timing) and Deva came in to create history with "Autokaaran" and "Azhagu" songs.
Finally Rajini's desire was fulfilled when he did Muthu for KB and ARR scored.
nyways nothing is lost of gained for anyone, everything happens for a purpose and entropy is stable overall and universe remains in balance.
Again, as often repeated,...for Rajini and Kamal Movies, are sold only for them, and the value does not cahnge based on the MD, Director, Editor, Cameraman,..etc..One exception can be their combo with Shankar , that would get a increased sale value. (Again let us also remember, shankar need to combine with either of these two stars to get his movie sell better)..
In Reality,the MD combination is not going to alter the sale value any way..it purely is how Rajini/Kamal goes about it.
[quote="jaiganes"][quote="irir123"]if all of that is true, I can very well understand why IR refuses to do music for Rajini films - even though the 2 of them claim to be friends offscreen! 'thanmaanam' prachhanai here, I guess!Quote:

For record, IR has done two Rajini movies after aNNAmalai -Quote:

IMO, it's a question of RK not preferring IR as the 1st choice and IR not accepting any offer that comes after someone else rejecting it / not having time to do etc. (hEy rAm was a different case, IR was the first choice anyways).
