Good Article…

Rafi Sb work with Iqbal Qureshi was great. In the movie Cha Cha Cha he composed gems like “Wo Tum Na Thi To Kaun Tha”. what a great composition. “Phir Ane Laga Yaad” from movie Ye Dil kis ko Doon. is also a great piece of work. Sweetness of voice was the main aspect of these gems.

Regards,

Nice Article by Mr Bijoor and thanks Mr Dhareshwar ji, however isn’t the ‘Khoj’ song – ‘chanda ka dil toot gaya’ composed by Nizar Kazmi (who later went to Pakistan).It wasn’t Husnalal Bhagatram.I had heard that Rafisab sang this song for mere 1 rupee.However, i would take this moment to highlight one of their best compostions’ Ek dil ke tukde hazar huye’ .Also I would like to mention’Ganesh’ whose composition ‘Dil ka suna saaz’ for ‘Ek naari do roop’ makes us realize Rafisaab’s worth.

i had the pleasure of listening to rafi saahebs non-hindi numbers in languages like bengali, oriya, kannada, telugu,marathi, punjabi and some others. they are all beautiful to the ears.

two english numbers heard many years ago are splendid too. many music lovers are yet to listen to this two great numbers.

Rafi Saheb telugu songs as mentioned earlier became instant hits in andhra pradesh when those films were released. Rafi Saheb playbacked for the telugu legendary actor nandamuri taraka rama rao in Bhale Tammudu (1969) and Aradhana (1975). The songs of these films sung along with P Suseela and S Janaki(telugu Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhonsle) were a rage and are popular to this date. The telugu version of Baar Baar Dekho(China Town) and Aaja Tujko Pukare Mere Geet Re(Geet) were instant hits. Apart from these two songs….. Haseena Haseena from Akbar Salim & Anarkali(again a NTR starrer)(1978) along with P Suseela became such a super duper hit song, it is often a popular audience choice. Special mention is to be made of the lyrict writer…. Dr.C.Narayana Reddy a very competent and soulful lyricist… who penned all of these songs in Urdu for the convenience of Rafi Saheb to practice the language well before recording. Rafi Saheb along with P Suseela and S Janaki immortalised the songs alongwith the arresting screen presence of the great NTR.

Fantastic article by Bijoorji and Dhareshwarji. You have given a brief information of songs of rafisahab. I love one grt8 song which was composed by N Dutta from the film “Chandrakantha”, Maine chand aur sitare ki tamana ki thi”. what a song it is. Its big song but really melodious song.

Post 6 : Sandeeep and music lovers :

Naushad saaheb is there too, the guru of rafi saaheb. and majrooh saaheb, madhubala too. all at the santacruz juhu gardens burial ground inside the grand mosque.

only mohd rafi and naushad saahebs sacred burial space remains. all others have been filled up by many lucky souls.
