Rafi’s soulful voice touched millions

Hindi film music (R)aficionados were in for a treat when they listened to Mohammed Rafi’s aatma ki awaaz.

The song was Zara Saamne Toh Aao Chhaliye, and it was from (R)afilm titled Janam Janam Ke Phere, which released in 1957.

The voice of his soul [and that of his co-singer (Lata Mangeshkar)] transported people to another world, but they obviously had to return to reality (where music is serious business) soon.

It wouldn’t be appropriate to call the surprise Binaca Geetmala topper [which V(y)as penned by Bharat and composed by S N] a Tripa(r)t(h)ite agreement.
