P.C. Sriram shot Maniratnam's first three films - Roja (1992), Bombay (1995), and Dil Se (1998). Ravi K. Chandran was cinematographer for Kannathil Muthamittal (2002), Yuva (2004), and Guru (2006). Santosh Sivan shot Thalapathi (1991), Iruvar (1997), and Raavan (2010). R.D. Rajasekar only worked on one Maniratnam film - Ok Kanmani (2015), which disqualifies him from the 'more than 2 movies' criterion.
