vijaya,

It's a lot EASIER to make photorealistic renders with the newer versions of Max and Mental Ray. There's A&D materials which have Ambient Occlusion built into them, and they just look better than the other materials.

Heck, in Max 2009 there's Pro-Materials which are supposed to be even better (but I haven't seen it yet).

I don't have any tips for you for Max 8.
