There're a couple other interesting thuNukkus there :

-vaidEki K was originally 'advance given' by AVM but they wanted Surya's dad as hero Since R S wanted a 'karuppu' hero, Panju ended up producing it

- R S was elected poruLALar for director's association but ended up quitting that job as he was unwilling to get corrupt

everyone's interview is like Virumandi flash back narration.. they say only their +ve side..

That's correct, HR

As public, we will never know what all things happened behind the scenes (& in real lives of artists). What we get are two things :

a) The actual end products (movies / music albums etc) of artists
b) The so-called interviews (here again, the reporters / media can pad up, add masAlA etc)

a) is more authentic and we can draw some conclusions based on them.
b) is only for swArasyamAna reading and nothing more

Based on (a), a few very +ve things about R S :
1. Great colloborater with IR
2. One who brought GM to the forefront as comedian & who popularized the GM-Senthil pair
3. Who did 2 massive hits with Vijayakanth in the early days (without red-eye / adi-dhadi / politics / sattam etc)

Excellent post App on Paadha kolusu paattu with lot of insights about RS. Thank you, really enjoyed it! And what a song that is. This song is also a great contender for #366 being SPB solo, we get to hear full song with only SPB's voice.

New vote tally for #366 :

rAjAthi rAjA un thanthirangaL (I wrongly assumed it was SJ because my periyammA was singing it in kitchen so enthusiastically often, even thiraippAdal says so, but original sounds like Swarnalatha)
- 2.5 (no new votes)

muthu maNi mAlai (PS briefly struggles but overall sounds great)
- 5 (no new votes)

sAmi kitta solli (SJ, the top duet companion of our thread nAyak)
- 5.5 (A_S new vote)

Come on HR, you got to do something...

Definitely my vote for SKS, as i mentioned before Avarampoo songs are in my heart all the time....

nanRi, V_Sji!

With buggle's vote (& rr's vAbas / splittu), sAmi kitta takes a big lead...

rAjAthi rAjA un -2.5, muthu maNi -4.5, sAmi kitta -7...

[V_S]

That's quite a good lead.

[baroque]

AVARAMPOO indeed!

welcome baroque appadinnu solladheenga!
ingadhaan suthindu erukken.... my praises are repeat....so calmly enjoying...

Thirumathi palanichami has a Vasu - IR's folk lilting tune KUTHALA KUYILEY... What a pattu!

Rasa, nammakitta padha kolusu.... illai!

vinatha

[Devaraagam]

Baroque, IR and Sundarajan also a lightning combo. Thirumathi Palanisamy was the last film for them and later sundarajan tied up with Deva for one or two movies.

what to believe?@##!@@, some time back I read heard from gangai amaran in TV that(some telugu super signer kind of program) , when they gone to Aaliyaaru dam (I believe this is the place) for thanga magan song composition, IR completed the work quickly and composed additional 5 songs and given to panju arunachalam then Panju Arunachalam given those tunes to few directors and asked them to come with story, in that they liked sundar rajan's story and started Vaidegi kathirunthal.
