Here is my take on IR - yesterday and today -
* do we all agree IR knows more music today than in 1976 ? I think the answer would be yes.
* do we think IR will know more about music in the next 5 years ? I think so (for eg. he is learning Jazz)
* does knowledge in music improve the musicality of the songs ? I think yes. Earlier years, I feel the WCM components were done a little roughly.
* is IR's tunes as fresh as it was in 1976 ? Short answer - No (Personal opinion). But read more - every composer has a style which becomes "exposed" over a period of time. This is also like a "genre" - for eg. thukkamena thuyaram enna - If I did not know it was from a new movie I would still like it. So if you like a style or genre you can listen to IR or somebody like that for ever that person makes
* is IR's orchestration improving ? Personal answer - yes - whether it is WCM like Pazhassi Raaja or the same rustic flavor with modern instruments and electronic sounds like in mayilu. He keeps pushing the envelope. This also includes various styles/effects of singing like in vaalmiki (achadisa kaasa) and adi aathE in mayilu.
* I do not care whether he makes money or commercially successful. I am shameless in just wanting to listen more and more of his music whatever happens to him .. similarly completely selfish is wishing and praying that he lives longer and makes music as long as he lives.
* to be more specifc - will Gautam-IR combo provide hit music ? - I had high hopes on pazhassi raaja and he delivered. I read about Nazar/avatharam - I think if the script/direction/quality of team is very high ..IR will be inspired or he just competes to beat the rest of the team. the pazhaasi raaja director put so much emphasis on lyrics for aadhi ushas.. IR tries hard to beat the lyricist..he is very competitive .. he will not the low ranker in a top notch team. Also, Gautam has a good music sense - if he picks a good tune from IR - his orchestration also willl be great. I believe that IR himself does not know whether a tune is good when he makes it !!!. Just like us, he seems surprised when a song comes out good.
I dont know whether I have grown old and/or sluggish or indifferent hit or not does not seem to make any difference to me. I have talked about pazhassi raaja to so many people and not many of them are excited about it as I am. Well..what can I say ...I know what I enjoy and I enjoy it .. thanks to the maker.. the Shiva of music ..IR ... the destroyer and creator of genres !!!

/digression:
I laughed a lot reading the last paragraph of Haricharan's interview
superb reply!

He told me to sing it live from start to finish with the orchestra.
Is Raaja turning the clock back for all the songs by recording live?
Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates.

Interestingly, I happened to see in IMDB site that IR is listed as the 11th best composer in the world. Obviously, there are only 2 from India.
