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.

Song no. 5 is one more duet, which is too good a song to not be known. This is by Shamshad Begum and Mohammed Rafi. I mean songs like this when writing that there are many better and rarer songs which could have been part of the Rafi series. I missed out on including this one.

It is a well known fact to all those interested in Hindi film music of golden era that Mohammed Rafi regarded G M Durrani as his idol. In the initial period of his singing career starting with his public and private performances, Mohammed Rafi used to imitate the singing style of G M Durrani. In the later 40s, as he started getting assignments for playback singing in Hindi films, somewhere during this period, he developed his own style of singing. Perhaps to some extent, credit should go to the music directors like Naushad, Husnlal-Bhagatram and Shyam Sundar who groomed him suitably in the initial stage of his playback singing. Later, with the popularity of his songs in ‘Baiju Bawra’ (1952), he reached the stage of ‘take off into a sustained growth’ in his playback singing carrier. The rest is history.
