Thaman has recently come under fire for not giving his all to many films. He only provides his best work on a few projects.
No wonder that some actors, such as Mahesh Babu, are not eager to collaborate with him.
Despite his reservations, Mahesh Babu is working on "Guntur Kaaram" solely at the request of director Trivikram.
Thaman recently stated that it is impossible for music directors to provide the best soundtracks to the meaningless sequences. Thus, he revealed his weakness: he gives the best to the best sequences only.
Regardless of the content or filmmaker, music directors like Ilayaraja have shown their full talent. In many 1980s films, Ilayaraja's music was more important than the story or screenplay.
However, Thaman claims that it is impossible to provide great music to ineffective stories or scenes.
