ARR had said that Mani gave him "minimal" guidelines for developing any song, just a rough situation, and leaving remaining to ARR to come up with the song. So, I think Mani is not interfering in the song creating process, that might be a connotation of being the boss.
Still, he has to fit song in the film and if he got 3 songs developed that he couldn't fit in the movie now, that is just poor utilization of his skills and resources that he has got a genie called ARR who will create great music for him, so he misuses ARR talents and makes him develop songs that has no place in the film. He didn't put thayya thayya in dil de. that was the smallest song of the album, just one stanza, how long was it? 3 min? 4 min? and how can he couldn't find a 5 min slot for such a great song in his film? He could have shown at least the location where he wanted to put this song, the way Bose had just first two lines of that female lori. I think Mani doesn't take ARR's music seriously if he wastes 3 songs of ARR. -- Rawat On 5/14/2010 11:16 PM India Time, _AJ_ wrote: > So, there you go.......those who are complaining of Raavan's music, keep > these 2 things in mind from this ARR interview: > > 1) "Mani is the boss" > 2) "It's not about having done a great song or having worked hard on the > music.
