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.

Today 19th October 2025 is the sixty-ninth birthday of actor Sunny Deol. He was born on 19th October 1957. He has been a director and producer of movies too and he was a Member of Parliament from 2019-2024.
On the occasion of birthday of Sunny Deol (real name Ajay Singh Deol), I am presenting a song from his debut film ‘Betaab-1983’. The song that I am presenting has been one of my favorite songs from those years and I like it very much. This song was my first choice for today’s presentation among many other songs that I had in my mind. The fact that it is a Pancham composition is another reason to bring it here today.

Today 16th October 2025 is the seventy eighth birthday of actress Hema Malini. She was born on this day in the year 1948. We wish her a very happy birthday and a healthy and peaceful life ahead. During my growing years in the seventies to early eighties I get to watch many Hindi Films where Hema Malini was the lead actress. She was ruling the roost and she was given the nickname of Dream Girl of Hindi Cinema.
Today on the occasion of her birthday I was looking for a song from this decade 1971-1980. I had a song in mind but then I kept it aside. After changing my mind I started looking for a song where R.D. Burman was the composer of the movie. That led me to this song from the movie ‘Alibaba Aur 40 Chor-1980. So I was able to find a song from the seventies as planned.

(Kishore Kumar’s 39th Remembrance Day 13th October 2025)
Yesterday 13th October 2025 was the 39th Remembrance Day of the legendary singer Kishore Kumar. He was born on 4th August 1929 at Khandwa (now in Madhya Pradesh) and he passed away at the age of fifty-eight only on 13th Octorber 1987 at Bombay (now Mumbai).
We are all aware Kishore Kumar started his singing career with the 1948 movie ‘Ziddi’ where he had given playback for actor Dev Anand. This was the song ‘marne ki duaayein kyun maangoon’. Kishore Kumar’s peak-time came during the end-of-sixties, and the decade of seventies was when Kishore Kumar’s voice was heard everywhere. He sang songs for many of the established actors as well as new-comers in the industry. And of course he was well-known as the voice of Dev Anand and voice of the Superstar-Rajesh Khanna.

#Yippeeee to Aanchal-1980 #
———————————————
In this post I am presenting a nice ‘morning’ /‘bhor’ song’ from the movie ‘Aanchal-1980’.
Picturisation shows a big house in a vilage where most of the main characters in the movie reside. Rakhee is lip syncing this good morning song in the voice of Lata Mangeshkar. Two decades ago, we had Meena Kumari lip syncing in Lata Mangeshkar’s voice another good morning song ‘jyoti kalash chhalke.’
Like what Meena Kumari was shown doing in that iconic “Bhaabhi Ki Choodiyaan”(1961) song, this “Aanchal”(1980) song shows Rakhee playing her role as an ‘ideal Bhaarteey Naari’ performing early morning household chores such as spraying water (mixed with ‘gobar’), ‘tulsi kee pooja’, feeding the birds, extracting water for household works from the pump, waking up other members of the household, preparing them for going to their work etc.
