O Duniya Ke Rakhwale was the second Mohammed Rafi solo from Baiju Bawra on this blog. The film established
him as the numero uno playback singer
in Hindi films. He held the position until the late 1960s.
To listen to him
present his case before God in a high-pitched voice continues to give the
listeners goosebumps.
Penned by
Shakeel Badayuni and composed by Naushad, the song, which was based on Raga Darbari,
should have come with the (paraphrased) disclaimer – “This song was rendered by
a trained professional. Do not try this on a reality show.”
