Maestro ilaiyaraaja news & titbits

[irir123]

interesting!

apparently, when "Mantrigari Viyankadu" was being planned, the director's original choice was KV Mahadevan, but the producer insisted on IR !

so it very much looks like who the MD is, is very much the producer's call who can override the actor/director's demand/suggestion!

it was 1983 and IR's was paid a remuneration of Rs 60,000! which is the same as the film's heroine Poornima Jayaram's remuneration!
