The series has reached a stage where I have covered several old timers among female playback singers who left their marks in Hindi movie music. The last of those to feature here is Geeta Dutt. This is a duet with Rafi from the film ‘Superman’ (1960). Prem Dhawan is the lyricist and the music director is Sardar Malik. Only the audio link is available, but it is said to be picturized on Helen and Majnu.

There were a number of Urdu poets during the golden era of Hindi film music that also ran in the contest of attaining the prime slots as lyricists in Hindi films. By early 60s, most of them had either disappeared from the scene or they were marginalised. A few of them had migrated to Pakistan to try their luck there. The names of some of such lyricists who come to my mind are Nakshab, Anjum Philibiti, Zia Sarhadi, Behzad Lucknowi, Aziz Kashmiri, Shewan Rizvi, Noor Lucknowi, Khumar Barabankvi etc. Some of them were also script/screenplay writers at one time or the other.

Song no. 5 is one more duet, which is too good a song to not be known. This is by Shamshad Begum and Mohammed Rafi. I mean songs like this when writing that there are many better and rarer songs which could have been part of the Rafi series. I missed out on including this one.
