Tribute to Mohammad Rafi on 43rd death anniversary

We come to that day again, when the death anniversary of Rafi Sahab becomes the subject of talk, discussion, posts in the blog, awe-inspiring for learners and a deep-thinking day for die-hard fans like me.  As I grow older, the word ‘fan’ in this context sounds basic and amateur. Not that it is anything great for me to be a ‘fan’ per se, because I am but a speck on this mortal earth, whereas Rafi Sahab’s voice and songs have attained immortality.

There are few write-ups that I had left unfinished before the ‘gang-out’ happened. They remained unfinished and so got delayed. Today’s post is one such delayed post which was about ‘summer vacations in my childhood days’ and memory of one such movie watched during one summer vacation.

The vacations are over this year and I guess that schools have re-opened everywhere, except a few states where vacations have been extended due to severe heat conditions that still exist.

#the Decade of Fifties –1951 – 1960 #

Regulars on the blog are aware that, besides being music-lovers and Hindi movie buff, many of the blog members also love ‘cricket’ and ‘rail/train’, or if I am not wrong especially the Indian Railways.

Travelling by train is something which is always interesting. Most of us enjoy and love it. It brings back many memories from our childhood days too.

This post is the 17700th song post for the blog.

Blog Day :

Yesterday (24 April 2023), I was on an overdrive, as far as posting of articles in the blog was concerned. I ended up posting as many as eight articles on that day. Posting eight articles in a day was fairly common in the blog one decade ago. For instance, during april 2013, eight articles were covered on ten days and nine articles were covered on another four days. That year saw eight songs posted on as many as 36 days (10% of the days in that year). But things are different now a days. During the last seven years, we have touched this figure of eight songs in a day only four times !
