I just loved vijayr posts at the blog...... miss him in the forum!!

Suresh65 - How can you say MSV's musical prowess had declined in 1988? AFAIK, MSV was making decent music until 1986. IR just dominated the market with his quality and speed. Compared to IR of 80s, no MD in the 90s/2000s dominated TFM. ARR was at the top, but I do not think he did more than 5 movies in a year. So, there is lot of space for others including IR. When ARR was at the top, there are many others like Deva, Vidhyasagar, Harris Jeyaraj were able to work on decent number of movies.

So it is not MSV lacked skill, but IR did not leave much room for anybody else. Please don't get me started on how IR lost his monopoly (all the answers are right there in GVM's words!!)
