i think most are getting the list wrong.......how are BR, IR, Maniratnam influencing cinema business now?? :roll: ......if its creative influence, then sorry, it doesent neccessarily take a mozart to influence a IR or ARR, it can be someone like T.Rajendar as in case for ARR......so, the lists will vary for each one, if its "creative influencers" ....ok my list, who control/demand/command business in TF now IMO.....
1. Rajinikanth
2. Kamalhassan
3. Ajith
4. Vijay
5. Aascar Ravi
6. Shankar.S
i dont think anyone else in the industry have commercial pull like the above........ARRahman ofcourse, is 1-10 in audio industry..... :)
