Maximum songs in a movie - Sree vaLLi - 90 songs ??
First Digital recording in TFM - rOjaa - ARR

In "Johny", all the songs were solos, and each song had a different singer :
* Oru Iniya Manadhu (Sujatha Mohan)
* En Vaanile (Jency)
* Kaatre Endhan Geetham (S. Janaki)
* Aasaiya Kaathula (S. P. Shailaja)
* Senorita (SPB)
Hari :
I don't think Mano sang in MMMK (I hope you mean Michael, Madana,... ), and SPB figured in Rambambam and Shivarathiri.
Mouli has also worked with Maragathamani, and Vikraman has worked with Sirpi.
P. Vasu has worked with quite a few MDs : IR, GA, Hamsalekha, Deva, Vidyasagar, Suresh Peters, ARR, etc. So, I guess he's in the race for the director who has worked with the most number of MDs too.

Mano,
Mano sang siva rathri song in MMMK. I checked
with my cassette listings also. I dont know about
the aadipattam song.
Viswa,
Yes he worked with maragathamani in Telugu films.
I considered only mouli's tamil films only.

viswa,
For maximum no of movies by actor/md combination,
may be sivaji/MSV will take the record. But what
I meant about kamal/IR combination is, they were
unbroken for almost a decade. I dont think ever
sivaji/MSV did that.

Mano,
As someone pointed out (in some other thread), Balu Mahendra first worked with Salil Chowdhury before switching over to IR. He has stayed with him ever since ! Balu Mahendra also used L. Vaidyanathan for his tele-film "Sandhya Ragam"

The only modern-day actor to sing close to 45 songs': Kamal.
In addition to singing for himself, he has sung for other heroes like Mohan (Oh mAne mAne mAne)and Ajeet(UllAsam).
Lady AshtAvadhAni: Bhanumati RAmakrishna
story, screen-play, dialogues, direction, production, music, singing, acting
The song with only percussion instruments and voices : 'Raja Rajathi rajan' (Agni Nakshatiram).
The only singer who has sung in a baby's voice ("KaNNA nee engE"- 'Rusi KaNda Poonai'), young man's voice ("Mummy peru mAlu"- Nenjathai kiLLAdhe, an adult woman's voice (hundreds of them) as well as an old lady's voice ('POdA pOdA Pokke eLLu kAttukku thekke' - poottAtha poottukkaL?): Who else? S. Janaki.
The only situation where an interlude for one song (Kamal film) is the same as the interlude of another song (Rajni film):
The songs are:
1. 'PoongAtru pudhithAnadu' (MoondrAm piRai) and
2. 'En VAzhvilE varum anbE vA' (Thambikku Entha Ooru)
The reason is: when 'MoondrAm piRai' was remade in Hindi as 'Sadma' it was replaced by a new song, "Ae Zindagi galE lagAle", for which the 2nd interlude of 'poongAtru' was reused (the interlude shows Kamal and Sridevi listening to the sound of the train keeping their ears glued to the tracks).
This new song came out so well in Hindi that it appeared later in Rajni's film as 'En vAzhvilE varum anbe vA'!

-The film `oru thalai rAgam' had no female voice at all, even though it had 7 songs, all big hits. (vAsamilla malaridhu, idhu kuzhandhai pAdum thAlAttu, ada manmadhan rakshikkanum, koodayila karuvAdu, nAnoru rAsiyillA rAjA, en kadhai mudiyum nEramidhu, kadavuL vAzhum kovililE)
-It also had the controversy of having two MDs in posters /promos initially (Rajendran-AA Raj) but later claimed to be all TR stuff.
-Usage of 4 different male voices in the same film, all for solos, could be another feature (similar feat: Johny with 4 female voices + 1 male, all solos)

Johny with 4 female voices ? I could remember only three - Jency (En vaanilee and Oru Iniya manathu), S.Janaki (KaaTRil) and S.P. Sailaja (Aaasaiyak Kaaththulee).,

athaney parthen. When IR is praised, can Trend be far behind? Whether he can contribute constructively to the DF or not, it another matter! IR should not be in the limelight! Does it not remind one of Subramaniam Swamy?!!

Common Man,
Thanks for the compliment.I usually compliment what I find is commendable in somebody.I have never in my life contributed constructively to this thread at any time.I'm completely aware of that.
As far as possible,I try to refrain from passing any personal comments on anyone even if it goes to the point of someone throwing a lot of mud on my fav MD.But you are welcome to do whatever you want.
Don't elevate me to the status of Subramanian Swamy.My mind is not anywhere as sharp as his.
Anyway,have a nice weekend.I intend to continue my drivel form Monday again.

UVII,
I don't have any personal bitter exp. over anything.Sarcasm is fun for me.I listen to IR a lot everyday.I love his music a lot.But I have priorities and when people don't respect that I have fun.Anyway enough of me.
