Rafi Sahab’s Legendary Associations – 15
Back in 2021, I had started this ambitious series for posts to highlight the significant associations in Rafi Sahab’s career. I knew that very few and far between, songs of the major influencers on Rafi Sahab’s singing, were remaining to be posted in the blog, even in 2021.
Most of these stalwarts were old timers, like Naushad, S. D. Burman, Shankar-Jaikishan, Chitragupt, Ravi and C. Ramchandra etc. A few of them of them were more contemporary, like R. D. Burman and Laxmikant-Pyarelal, who were with him. They were the latest beneficiaries of Rafi magic, who were ‘faizyafta” till the end, in 1980. Both started in 1966-67 and continued. Even Kalyanji-Anandji was composing songs for Rafi sahab till the end of 70’s. Madan Mohan and Ravi did it throughout his career and till “Laila Majnu” in 1976, and was the only one who started in 50’s and ended and 70’s, apart from Naushad.

10th October is the birthday of an actress whose work I simply love to see ever since I saw her in the 1980 released “Khoobsoorat” and I shall never tire of telling this. I know the readers of this blog are aware of my partiality towards a few actresses of the period of 1970s & 1980s- Hema Malini, Rekha, Zeenat Aman, Parveen Babi, Jaya Bhadhuri- if I need to name them. I try not to miss writing a post for the birthdays of these ladies.
So, here I am, wishing Rekha (who was born Bhanurekha) a very Happy Birthday. Hope she continues to be beautiful, charming, and continues to make the (odd) appearances in front of audiences; at least on reality shows on television if not in films.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 21
—————————————————————————
Today’s song is from the movie “Kavi-1954”. I have neither watched the movie nor I am aware of many of its songs. However, when I noticed this movie is due for ‘Blog ten-year challenge’ of 17.04.2020, I checked its pending songs. I came across a duet sung by Rafi Saab and Talat Mehmood which I found interesting since I was not aware of this song. Also, the music of this movie is composed by C. Ramchandra ji one of my favorite music directors which is another reason why I am sharing this song here today.
Three songs were represented on the blog on 17.04.2010 including a song from this movie ‘Kavi-1954’;
| Song | Movie title-Year | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Bolo he zameen bolo aasmaan | Chakradhaari-1954 | All songs covered |
| Main pee ke nahin aaya | Kavi-1954 | |
| Nuktaa cheen hai gham e dil | Mirza Ghalib-1954 | All songs covered |
“Kavi-1954” had total ten songs in it, all written by Rajinder Krishan. Music for this movie was composed by C. Ramchandra.
Lata Mangeshkar, Mohd Rafi, Talat Mehmood, Asha Bhonsle and Chitalkar (C. Ramchandra) had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

Today 6th Feb 2020 is one hundred and fifth birth anniversary of Ramchandra Narayan Dwivedi (06.02.1915-11.12.1998), popularly known to all of as ‘Kavi Pradeep’.
Kavi Pradeep was a great poet and lyricist admired by the whole film industry in India. And as a singer too. Though he has sung very few songs, he has left an indelible mark in the history of Indian movies.
He has penned over five hundred songs as a lyricist and as per statistics on the blog so far 181 out of 531 of his lyrics have been posted on the blog. So, one can understand we still have a long way to go to bring all his lyrics here on the blog. (I think finding all the songs (audio/video) may be difficult now).

We had this post last year on the same date by Avinashji where he has written about the background of the movie “Woh Main Nahi”(1974). He has listed all the famous songs and movies of Navin Nischol. Most of the songs which I like are in that list.
