Today, December 24th, 2013 is 89th birth anniversary of Mohammed Rafi. This blog has a wealth of information on Mohammed Rafi. So I will be brief on his early life and confine myself to few points which have some relevance to the song I am presenting here. Suffice to say that Rafi was a great singer in making since childhood. At the age of 10, he started singing sufi songs immediately after hearing from a faqir who used to pass through the by-lanes of his residence every day. Rafi would follow him and sing with him. That was his beginning of his interest in singing. At the age of 13, he sang in front of a restless audience who had come to hear K L Saigal and enthralled them. At the age of 16, he did his first playback singing for a Punjabi film ‘Gul Bloach’ (1940). I am reminded of a colloquial Hindi proverb which I heard for the first time during my school days – ‘honhaar birwaan ko hot hai chikne paat’ (coming events cast their shadows before). This proverb proved right in the case of Mohammed Rafi became a legendary playback singer in Hindi films.

Divas of Hindi film music (19) :
—————————————
Kajra muhabbat waala ankhiyon mein aisa daala,
Reshmi salwaar kurta jaali kaa,
Sharma ke ye kyun parda nasheen

This is the famous Jodi of female singers known for their duets which are popular. They are the venerable Asha Bhonsle and the inmitable Shamshad Begum. When I chanced upon this duet by them from the movie “Chaubees Ghante” (1958), I thought this would be a good inclusion in the series.

Divas of Hindi film music (12)
———————————-
I know Geeta Dutt through some famous songs of hers in the 50’s which were played on radio and being a fan of S. D. Burman songs, it seems she was here there and everywhere especially in early 50’s. Her connection to Guru Dutt and her troubled life and times, with him and untimely death of both makes them the most written about couple of their era. Even in all these, genuine artistic talent of both is the dominant factor in their image. A strong spiritual or religious guidance could have gone some way in giving both of them the will power to face the issues in life, and motivation to tackle them. The tinsel town is such a place that it is very easy to lose touch with realities and drown in depression and sorrows, which are magnified to impossible levels due to the habits of intoxication. Genuine friends are few and most of the circle are there only forthe good times.
