I agree with total degradation in standard of music in todays movies be it a song or RR. We miss Viswanathan-Ramamoorthy,K.V.Mahadevan, A.R.Rahman and Ilayaraja very badly. It is a fact that Ilayaraja himself lost his own class since 1991. We should agree the creativity life span is limited for MDs ranging from 12-16 years.

M.S.Viswanathan -T.K.Ramamoorthy- 1952 to 1965.

M.S.Viswanathan- 1966 to1969.

K.V.Mahadevan- 1957- 1976.

Ilayaraja- 1976 to 1991.

A.R.Rahman- 1992 to 2008.

But it is a pity that chain of genius emerge and hand battons regularly. Today, no creative genius with inherent talent emerge and career minded assembly music mediocres rule the roost.
