There have been quite a few Rafi songs where Rafi has sung with such high energy levels that the listeners are left gasping for breath literally. To this day I keep wondering how a singer can sing with such high energy level throughout in a song lasting well over three minutes and sometimes more. Songs of “Junglee”(1961), “Rajkumar”(1964),”Prince” (1967),”Saawan Bhaadon”(1970) etc readily come to mind as songs whose energy levels could have lit up a few households if harnessed properly.

Such movies were regarded as obscene and were given A certificates.

I am writing again today to document another very important interaction; an interaction that has been a dream for me for many months now. I am in San Diego today, and the local time is 2.00 am. And I am writing this post from the residence of Shri Surjit Singh ji. I am sure friends on this blog would be familiar with his name, in context of Hindi films and film music. He is a diehard fan of this music, and has been playing a major role in raising awareness about it, collecting rare materials and making them available on the internet. His web site is at here , and I recommend friends and readers on this blog to visit this and find out more about him.

When one looks at the Hindi movie actors of today, one finds that almost all of them are relatives of old time movie personalities. And those who are not, become related to old time film personalities by marrying into such families. So much so that it is a daunting task for rank outsiders to break into Hindi movies.
