For my next song we turn to a Lata Mangeshkar melody – “Sultana Mera Naam Hai” from Sangram (1976) which is a lively cabaret-style dance number composed by Bappi Lahiri with lyrics by Gauhar Kanpuri. It is a nightclub-oriented songs and reflects the changing musical trends of the mid-1970s, when Western rhythms and cabaret sequences had become popular in Hindi cinema.

Musically, the song combines a strong dance beat with brass instrumentation and a catchy refrain. Bappi Lahiri’s arrangement is energetic but not yet as disco-driven as the style he would become famous for a few years later. Instead, it sits somewhere between the traditional Hindi film cabaret of the 1960s and the emerging disco sound of the late 1970s.

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.
