Voh Bharat Desh Hai Mera
This article is written by Pradeep.
Today we celebrate our 59th Independence Day. As we listen to this song, classic memories of Rafi Sahab and India become very prominent. The eternal happiness that Rafi Sahab portrays in this song gives us all a warm feeling, a secured feeling. Numerous Indians have lost thier life in the freedom struggle. The freedom that we enjoy now cannot be enjoyed without a tear. As we breathe in the sovereign air we should respect all those who perished in the freedom struggle.
She (India) has left indelible imprints on one fourth of the human race in the course of a long succession of centuries. She has the right to reclaim … her place amongst the great nations summarizing and symbolizing the spirit of humanity. From Persia to the Chinese sea, from the icy regions of Siberia to Islands of Java and Borneo, India has propagated her beliefs, her tales, and her civilization! — Sylvia Levi
Lets enjoy this number from Sikandar-e-Azam based on Yaman Kalyan Shuddh Raag. Music by Hans Raj Bahal and lyrics by Rajendra Krishn.

Dear friends,
I have been reading you comments on the ‘old saga’. I am also a fan of Rafi from Pakistan. There is no doubt that many singers have been ruling Bolly Wood. All of them can be called, atleast, the king of their time. We, being the music lover, should not call any singer a bad singer. This is a field where even a non- routine voice like that of Himaish Reshmia can rule the hearts.One thing that only rafi sahib had was extreme of soul in singing. This is what really matters to an ordinary listener like me. I would like to present my analsis as under:
Rafi Sahib is the end product of music ( the music which is called bread of soul)
Kishore Kumar is the Foundation of music of upcoming generations.
For me, immortality lies only in being end product or Foundation
Everything else can be called ‘Commercially Viable’ but not immortal
