Second Edition of the Biography of Mohammad Rafi (With CD of Rare Videos)
This news is shared by Mr. Vinod Viplav.
As a writer and a die hard Rafi fan, I am thrilled by overwhelming response of Rafi fans and Music lovers on my book on great music legend Mohammad Rafi Saheb – “Meri Awaz Suno”. It is amazing that a in the age of modern mode of communication and entertainment like internet and television a book got unbelievable response. This is the magic of the person who leaved 27 years ago but his songs are still enthralling and delighting us. We all rafi fans not only want to listen his melodious voice but also want to know about each and every aspects of his life.
I know a number of people who can spend countless hours in talking and discussing about Mohammad Rafi. And that is why all rafifans were passionately waiting for the biography of Mohammad Rafi.
Meri Awaaz Suno Book Cover Page
Today when a number of important books on important subjects written by prominent writers bite dust in book stores and libraries but the long-awaited biography of our most beloved singer – Mohammad Rafi sold overnight like hot cake and within the short span of time we are forced to bring out the second edition of this book. At present less than fifty copies of the first edition of the book and seeing the immense demand, I know that these copies will be finished soon.
Meri Awaaz Suno Back Cover
I want to inform rafi fans that the second edition of the book – Meri Awaz Suno is going to be published soon and I am trying hard so that second edition should released this year – 24 th December – on the birth anniversary of Rafi Saheb. In second edition there will be some additional chapters, interviews and photographs. This book is about life and songs of Moammad Rafi. This is the first biography of Rafi Saheb. With each copy of the second edition of the book a CD will also be given. CD will contain rare videos of live shows, rare interview of Rafi Saheb and much more. The price of the book (with CD) will be Rs. 150/ only. Those who want to purchase this book (with CD) book their copy please feel free to contact me. Rafi fans may also contact to get first edition of the book.

Great news regarding bibliography of great singer. Will it be possible to translate and publish this book in English or Urdu, so that the Pakistani fans of Rafi Sahab can also read the same.

Dear Vinod ji..
I was told by a friend of mine that u have mentioned in “meri awaz
suno” that people do rafi shows on dec.24 and july 31 for making
money. I do not read much of hindi and wish to state that a rafi lover
like u should not be saying such things to the organisers who are
mostly great rafi lovers. They are doing a great service , putting
their time, energies and money at stake by doing these shows.
they are spreading the ‘rafi magic’ and have a right to earn and lose
money for which u or the audiences are never responsible..
I will be happy to see ‘houseful’ boards at rafi saab shows and pained
to see ‘empty seats’ in a rafi show - which will ensure that the
organiser ‘do’ not host shows in future.
vinod ji, rafi saabs magic is at work and people want rafi shows and
please do not complain if rafi lovers and artists are making some
money for their efforts.
may i ask u if u are giving away your book at its cost price? u have
also advertised a cd along with your book. the copyright of the c.d
is not with u hence its improper to market the c d or give it as
giveaway along with ur book. please confirm this. and……..
Kindly ‘delete’ those lines under discussion from the 2nd edition is
my request to you.

FANTASTIC, i have read the first edition of biography of my beloved singer mohd. rafi sahab. All i can say to all of you is that the man was par excellence so far as singing is concerned. No other singer has ever been able to match his class. He was matchless. I am sure that there wont be second rafi on this planet. I am die hard rafian. If u wish to share anything about rafi sahab with me, i will always be there for you guys as it has become my hobby rather penchant to talk about rafi sahab every now and then. If you have any query which i can satisfy, feel free to contact me.

Salam alaikum to all, i am 20 years old college student from the Sultanate of Oman (Muscat). I have been listening to Rafi sahab’s songs since i am 7 years old. I started liking Rafi’s Sahab’s songs from my parents who are his fans like others. I was really attracted to those perfectly sung songs that I couldn’t stop my self from hours of sitting near the tape and regreting that why I couldn’t meet this personality. I am not sure if this space is the suitable place to write but I saw this website and just wanted to share my respect to Rafi Sahab with others. Thanks anyway for this wonderful site and my prayers to Rafi Sahab…
