ejamAn (RVU reasoned with Rajini to accept IR, though Rajini expressed apprehensions with AVM opposing the choice, in 1993)
& veerA (1994, PA + IR, a combo like 80's in the midst of a big ARR wave! In the success celebration, Rajini's jocular remark on IR enjoying a/c room while the hero struggles in veyyil supposedly promoted a furious reply from IR on stage)
IMO, it's a question of RK not preferring IR as the 1st choice and IR not accepting any offer that comes after someone else rejecting it / not having time to do etc. (hEy rAm was a different case, IR was the first choice anyways).
