This article is written by Sudhir, a fellow enthusiast of Hindi movie songs and a regular contributor to this blog.
The versatility of one voice has been unmatched in the annals of Hindi film music. A voice that is a match for any emotion, from one end of the spectrum to another. A voice that renders gaiety and fun as effortlessly as sadness and regrets of life. A voice that could woo the lady love and call out to the Almighty God with the conviction that one actually strains the hearing, expecting an answer come back from the heavens. A voice that has the capability to merge itself into any personality so totally and unobtrusively that the listener could never separate the voice from the character. That is the voice of Rafi Saab, a divine gift that dwelt on this earth for single lifetime, and left behind a legacy that would span an eternity. It is indeed a matter of good fortune to be born in this era, and be touched by the voice of this marvelous, unearthly tenor – a sound that appears maybe once in an aeon.

Sadhana, who looked so pretty and stunning with a glowing face, had lost much of her facial glow and charm following some illness. This movie, to the best of my knowledge, was not as much of a success as the other two movies.
