Some facts been misquoted :

MD for Zakhmee : Bappi Lahiri
MD for Rafoo Chakkar : Kalyanji Anandji

Over all the analysis is good.

I was reading the “so called” Shashi Kapoor’s comment about RD’s music, its an irony that one of his best songs “suhaani chandni raatein” was composed by RD. Someone mentioned that “jhanak jahanak” by manna is based on kalavati, no its darbaari kannada.

It was not rd but sd was the graetest fan of kishore. but sd lived in rafi era and still specifically composed chartbusters for kishore. R d burman also probably liked kishore but rd burman liked and adored rafi. But sd burman was completely in favor of kishore. it is clear post 70. till sd burman was alive rd never used rafi much. and it is also claer that for serious songs rd prefered kishore than rafi. the story continues till kudrat “hume tumse pyarkitana”. it is clear that rd liked rafi but liked kishore more. only to kill the bias in favor of rafi before 70 rd dedicd to go all the way for “kishore” till kishore is established a s lead singer. thereafter rd used all male singers equally with little more preference for kishore.

Raj, on other part, thats on Kishore side its a happy moment to have foundation on legends name ,,,,but immature statement like that of urs and the behaviours of many arrogant kishore fans raise a question in my mind about future of ur organisation,but frankly speaking I don`t even care,,however best wishes to u as few kishore fan out of exception may be good but most of them r just jelous striken and sick of critisizing others,,,,
Raj`s comment is completly an egoistic approch of presenting a subject… lets ignore this kind of visitors!

Friends, I don’t know why you keep posting your comments on this thread, when the discussion has nothing to do with pancham. Please post your comments on “true voice”. I found an English translation of the article by Lata in Hindustan Times; I’m going to post it on that thread.

Raj,

Why are you posting this on this site? which fool would expect fans of the greatest singer alive(yes alive) to state someone else as the best? Are kishore kumar fans that immature and illogical?

Kishore kumar in 1985 recieved Lata mangeshkar award…this shows difeerence between the two
1310,no way,,neither do we nor even kishore fans can compare Kishore with lataji,,as Lataji is much ahead of him…..and also,,,,its because of singers like Kishore kumar n others who sang with lata mangeshkar after rafi sahab death,,,made lata mangeshkar,,such a great legend with the tag best,,,as no one had any confusion,,,with kishore Kumar,,lata ji`s duet sounded mostly one sided,or sometimes appear both r singing for themselves no mutual realtions in the voice feelings.,
,,,Lata mangeshkar became Lata mangeskar in presence of other male singer of lower talent and mainly because of vacuum of rafi sahab absence after 1980,,,,
