Let Rajini first prove that he can make his movie success without IR
Scale

1. Manidhan
2. Raja Chinna Roja
3. Annamalai

5. Muthu
6. Padayappa
7. Chandramukhi
RK movies in the past were richly enhanced by IR, Now anybody can do it in their own style or a combination of things.
This is just for an example to prove the point that If Saran works with RK then Bharadwaj would be the best suited combo for RK-Saran, but if you ask me the second line of people ARR & IR will take second place. I believe ARR/IR are only two people who could bring a difference to music for a RK film.
