Rafi Sb – In The Seventies – 2

(1971 – Duet)
The decade of the seventies brought in some significant changes in the landscape of Hindi film song. For one, it was the spectacular rise of Kishore Kumar as a playback singer.“Mere Sapnon Ki Raani” happened in 1969, and after that we see a meteoric rise in Kishore Da’s playback singing performances.

The generations were changing, and the new generations lapped on the new age music coming from this new crop of composers. Sadly, however, the demise of melody was also acknowledged to have occurred in this decade.

Today (2 september 2014) is the birth anniversary of Sadhana, the heart throb of millions of movie watchers in 1960s.
A few of her movies that were started in late 1960s had to be held in abeyance because Sadhana suffered from an ailment that affected her face. This, plus the fact that time and tide waits for none, meant that she was a pale shadow of her earlier self when she returned back after getting healed. Time had passed her by in the interim. Shooting of a few of her incomplete movies were resumed but it was too late by that time and these movies failed at the box office.

When the song “baat koi matlab ki” from Apradhi Kaun (1957) was posted here yesterday, one of the comments on it – from Arunji – referred to another song, “phir wohi dard hai”, from this film that had not yet been posted.
I immediately responded to that comment, saying I would post this song too at the earliest.

One of the things I like doing, is to watch old films on youtube. In the past, there weren’t that many available but over the last few years, many more have been uploaded. Especially the ones that aren’t very easily available otherwise. For somebody like me, that is like “andhe ko kya chaahiye, do aankhen”. 🙂

Yes, I am talking about Mohammad Rafi (or Rafisaab, as he is often respectfully referred to).
