Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 12
———————————————————-
This particular ghazal, as some other Mirza Ghalib ghazals, has been sung by various singers. Some of the famous renditions by KL Sehgal Sb, Suraiyya and also by Jaddanbai are already posted in the blog:

https://atulsongaday.me/2010/04/17/nukta-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil/ Jaddanbai (Non-Film song, 1930)
https://atulsongaday.me/2011/03/13/nukta-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil-2/ Suraiyya (‘Mirza Ghalib’, 1954)
Another rendition of the golden era is yet to find its way into the blog, so here is the Rafi Sahab rendition. This is a very small simple ghazal with only the four sha’irs being rendered.

Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 07
—————————————————
I remember during the radio days, whenever a non filmy song programme would start, we would shut down the radio. Now it was time to play or to do some study seriously or even watch TV. The time for all of these things was limited. Entertainment was available only on its time with fixed hours and no more, because even if we were free the friends will be called home and play time was over. Time spend with friends in the colony playing or just doing gup-shup was precious.

The 15th of August, is a special date in the calendar for India.
Every year, there are events across the country celebrating the day. There is flag-hoisting in schools, offices and public places. There are patriotic songs played on radio. There’s a lot more to mark the date and occasion.
All of this is understandable. After all, it was on the 15th of August that many years ago, India became an independent nation, free from British rule.

I am thankful to Ava Suri who, about a month back, had suggested to me to consider presenting a NFS ghazal ‘saaqi ki har nigaah pe bal khaa ke pee gaya’ (1965) sung by Rafi. Let me confess that I had missed listening to this great ghazal of Jigar Moradabadi all these years. This request gave me an opportunity to study in detail the ghazals of Jigar Moradabadi who was considered the last icon of classical Urdu poetry. He was such an interesting personality that I am tempted to write a full length article on him for the Blog which I will do in the near future.

Troika of Blog’s latest century singers – Mukesh, Rafi and Kishore Kumar : 2. Mohammed Rafi

With the completion of Rafi’s 2400th song , this Blog has covered nearly 50 per cent of the Hindi songs rendered by Mohammed Rafi during his active career (1948-1980). There is still a long way to go before this blog covers almost all the songs sung by him.

Mohammed Rafi – The Incomparable – 2
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
We all know that Mohammed Rafi Sb is the one playback who had many singers copying and imitating his singing style during his lifetime. After his passing away, the tendency only increased. There are a few shining examples like Sonu Nigam who started with Rafi Sb’s style and made a name for themselves. He is, in my view, closely followed by Udit Narayan and Mohammed Aziz. During the 1970s, when Rafi Sb was alive, there was Anwar who reportedly trained under him, and Rafi Sb himself regarded him highly. All these singers strived to imitate the inimitable Rafi magic.

Kitni raahat hai dil toot jaane ke baad
zindagi se mile maut aane ke baad
Aah! the bliss of being free of illusions. As if someone has removed the coloured glasses from my eyes through which the world used to look colourful. The feeling is not always pleasant but it is a honest and truer state to be in. Keeping one's eyes closed so that one is able to avoid the unpleasant things and pretend that all is well, is a self defeating attitude. Once the truth is out in the open and accepted than it is something one faces and deals with in our own way. Out of the clouds of delusions. Only then the correct runway can be found and safe landing in possible.

Chaandni Raaten : Song no. 5
——————————-
Song no. 05 of the series is a non – film song or rather a ghazal. Singer is Mohammed Rafi, judging by the voice it appear to be late 60’s recording. As the date of the song is not available anywhere that I could find, just making a guess. The poet of this very predictable ghazal is Muzaffar Shahjahanpuri. Now it the turn of music Directors name. The link on youtube is giving the name as Iqbal Qurieshi, and the comments on the youtube imply that the composer is Chhote Iqbal. Myswar.com and the excel sheets are playing it safe and giving the name as just “Iqbaal”. May be the knowledgeable readers of the blog will be able to clarify the name of the composer. By looking in the myswar.com I found the year of the song which is 1970.
