should director stick to one MD only?

News is that maniratnam's next movie is with HJ.
shortly ARR's fans will all begoing gaga as to how silly MR is to do this and what a loss it will be for fans etc.
when sridhar shifted from MSV or KB shifted from MSV did we have so much of hype-I dont think so.It paved way for better music in these directors films(IR got 2 of his three national awards with KB)who went on to do more films.
again MGR experimented with all sorts of MD's from MSV to kunnakkudi vaidyanathan-one reason could be his supreme self confidence in his abilities to extract good music from his MD's.

  I dont think MR is going to HJ for his next directorial venture... HJ is scoring music for one of MR's movies where he is the producer.. I think KR has already done this in Dum Dum Dum.. Again if HJ becomes the MD of MR, there could be a variety of reasons... I dont understand why MR himself would go to HJ, after Alaipayudhey and KM

  Kalyanaraman;
  
  Movies are launching pads for the MDs. Especially, a good/reknown director brings out the potency of the MD and just one or 2 movies with these directors would make them popular. So all MDs wait for this kinda great opportunities to launch themselves fittings. So there is a 2 way benefit. Then comes versatility. A director may want to get out of the drone with new explorations. Monotonously sticking to the same MD may even touch the endurance limits, which would eventually degrade the quality. IMHO Balachandar and Maniratnam probably have no one-MD policy. The keep experimenting with all to keep their movies as triumphant as possible. Despite they fail. IR, in some cases, has always been very successful.

  "shortly ARR's fans will all begoing gaga as to how silly MR is to do this and what a loss it will be for fans etc"
  I can't speak for other ARR fans, but even if all the TFM & HFM directors dumped ARR u wont see me condemning all the directors, their new choice of MDs etc. I'd rather kill myself than behave like an IR Fan.

  I think it was a horrible movie called navaratnam-balamuralikkrishna (!) did one of the songs for MGR!one of the biggest failures in MGR's career.
  //I dont understand why MR himself would go to HJ, after Alaipayudhey and KM//-may be KM is why!

  from what i heard and read in couple of interviews, MR- ARR relationship is beyond Director - MD level. ARR have never failed in any MR or Shankar ventures. Thats the last thing MR would do. If MR chose a new guy he would try to stick to him, but there is no reliable guys yet in the industry. Thats for one thing.

  //ARR have never failed in any MR or Shankar ventures//
  remember a movie called nayak from last year?it was directed by shankar.we keep telling you guys-ARR has not had a hit since lagaan-ALL,I repeat,ALL his movies including baba and lobs have flopped.

  Now why would we want to speculate? I find it very hard to believe that ARR fans will behave that way...at least in the present scenario.
  
  In fact, I don't remember seeing them go gaga when Rajini chose ARR. I think they would not have minded if he had chosen some other MD.

  If all directors had stayed with one MD then we wouldn't have seen genius like ARR today. In fact MD's are sticking to certain directors only these days.
