Yes Thulsi, you are correct, IR is a legend, no doubt. I don't think he is arr's guru. ARR created his own style himself. Those who are hearing ARR's Songs can undertand that in his style of music there is no influence of IR. For me i like IR very much for his amazing work he did before ARR. But there were some unwanted statements occur from IR in 90s. I remember that when Kadhalan audio released, IR said that "Todays Super hits are like a bomb explosion" i think that it was against ARR. Today ARR encouraging all other musicians.
