I am Binu Nair : the founder of The Rafi Foundation : from Mumbai. After working in Dubai for two decades I came back to India officially to start a branch office in Mumbai.. But the love of Music and the calling of melodious and memorable RAFI songs propelled me in to action which resulted in the formation of the Rafi Foundation which aims to bring RAFI lovers from all over the world on a single platform. Pls see our website : www.mohdrafi.com

On July 31st : this tuesday : Rafi lovers from all over India and few from outside as well will as usual at 10.00 a.m. assemble at Mohd Rafis tomb located at Juhu : opp Santa cruz police station, santacruz west, with flowers to pay homage to the legendary singer.

Rafi followers will pay floral tributes and seek blessings from the pious and saintly singer Mohd Rafi..

For many of Rafi followers he has not died : he is immortal. In a industry where legends are forgotten within a few years of their death; Rafi is not forgotten; people flock to his home on Dec 24, go to his tomb on July 31 and pray at his pictures in between in their homes - such is the aura of Mohd Rafi, the singer and the humble personality the world can see - only once in many centuries…

Please cover the occassion at Juhu on July 31 at 10.00 a.m this Tuesday and please show to the world the power of music - the attraction of common men women and children - for Mohd Rafi who will attend in large numbers to pay their respects at the Juhu tomb with flowers in hand..

The Rafi Foundation has called upon the government to honour Mohd Rafi with the nations highest civilian award - the Bharat Ratna. A Rafi music library will be built in the city of Mumbai - Rafis Karma Bhoomi.
