Ravi had given very passionate songs to Rafi in the film Do Badan. Along with the song ” raha gardishon me hardam” picturised on Manojkumar the song “naseeb me jiske jo likha tha” had a sombre appeal for the listeners.

Ravi had a lot of compassion for the poor and it was reflected even in his songs related to beggary, example being Rafi’s song garibon ko suno woh tumhara sunega. His title song in the film Waqt sung by Rafi, also showed that people should be submissive considering the power of nature and realising how much human beings are subject to the control of nature. In Waqt, an earthquake separated all the children of Balraj Sahani.

dear guru murthy
you are right. that’s bahu beti and not shehnai. all the songs mentioned by you are gems. my personal favourite (it is really tough to decide) is husn se chand bhi sharmaya hai. by tje way door ki awaaz has one more rafi thriller in muquaddar aazmana chahta hoon. the song used to be played with religious regularity on radio ceylon during the 1pm to 2pm fermaishi songs. one of its compere vijaysekhar would always make it a point to begin and ynd the programme with a rafi vintage. and most interesingly, he would never mention rafi’s name. he would always refer the film, lyricist and md’s name and refer to the singer as “awaaz aapki jaani maani hai.” i loved it because rafi does not need a mention. lt’s like pointing to mahatma gandhi’s picture and telling people that’s gandhi.

Dear Raju Kortiji,

Please refer your post no. 21. The song sabme shamil ho magar is not from SHEHNAI but from Joy Mukherjee - Mala Sinha starrer Bahu Beti. The third solo song in the movie Shehnai was Na Zhatko Zulfase Paani. The movie also had a Rafi-Asha duet Sadiyon Purani. The Dharmedra starrer Aankhen had its theme and title song by Rafi - Har Tarahse Jajbat Ka. Another beautiful Ravi composition was for the movie Door Ki Awaaz starring Joy Mukherjee and Saira Banu. It had two solos by Rafi, Husnase Chaand Bhi Sharmaya Hai and Dil Mera Aaj Kho Gaya Hai Kahin apart from two Rafi - Asha duets - Hathon Me Haath and Hum Bhi Agar Bache Hote.

well, ravi has been debated well in this forum, but i was waiting for someone to mention these songs that have been completely missed. one, the solo from apna banake dekho: raaze dil unse chupaya na gaya and second, the duet with asha: ham pyaar tumhe karte hain, hame apna banakar dekho. the songs from gehra daag have also escaped attention. two solos, aaj udta hua ek panchhi zindagi ki baharon mein aaya and bhagwan ek kasoor ki itni badi sazaa plus the duet with asha: tumhe paake hamne jahan paa liya hai.
i also wish somebody remembered that intense duet from aaj aur kal: mujhe gale se lagalo bahut udaas hoon main, where rafi steals a march over asha coming as he does with such tremendous depth towards the end in “bahut sahi ghame duniya magar udaas na ho

Hi,

I am a big fan of Mohd. Rafi and I have been listening to his beautiful voice for more than 30 years now (I am 39 yrs old now). About 20-25 years back, I used to like a particular song from a Audio Cassette called “Gazals and Geets from Mohd Rafi”. Unfortunately, I listened that song so many times that, after some time, the audio cassette almost become unusable. I am looking for the song since then.

Some of the lines of the Gazal/ Geet were as follows:

“Jab bhi Patto ke tan chhu ke Nikli Hawa, Teri Ahat ka mujhko Bharam sa hua,
Saakh Lipti gale se to mujhko laga, haar baanho ka tumne pahnaya mujhe,
Teri jhothi tasalli sitam kar gayi………..”

Could you please help me know the complete song and its title/ album name, so that I can get the song again. I believe, this is not very popular song by Mohd Rafi, however, it is my favourite,

Can anyone help me here?

Thanks
Sanjay
