Without any doubt, Rafi Saab was a great human being and the greatest singer. But, the way Shankar ji praises Rafi Saab, it shows his (Shankar Ji 's) greatness too, which he was. Both of them are legend of HFM. ❤
Shanker ji (SJ) always used to respect the singers/lyricists and all others assoiciated with their films. It was unfortunate that some vested interests used to malign Shanker ji to push their agenda.
Rafi sahab ko mera Salam Namashkar Sat Sat Naman Allah Hafiz hai Rafi sahab aap ne kitna sunder gaya hai Aap ne ji Salam Aadab Namashkar ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Shankar Jaikishan on one hand had strong bonding with stalwarts like of Rafi and Lata, they gave opportunities to all othet singers including Talat Mahmood, Subeer Sen, Suman Kalyanpur and most importantly a number of hits to Manna Dey (such a gem was ignored by other composers)
Mujhe ek ghatna yaad aati hai desh yudh ke karan bahut bure daur se gujar Raha tha aishe me bharat sarkar ko paisa jutani thi hindustan me sabhi to the kya kishor kya rafi kya mukesh kya Aasha lata lekin ek bahut bara musical program hua woh Name tha shankar jaikishan itni bulandi kisi ke nam ke sath nahi tha aur yah shankar ji ki mahanta thi ki sabo ko samman diye great and grate shankar jaikishan Amar jyoti patna
Interesting how Shankar states that this song was recorded in 1947. Aag had been released in 1948 and Im assuming Barsaat started after that. Shankar probably meant 1948
Love you RAFI SAHAB❤ Shankar ji ke sath is budhe rajkapoor ne bahut dhoka kiya. Shankar Jaikishan ki kitni dhume is ne Bobby, satyam shivam sundram, Ram Teri ganga malli, dharam karam, Prem Rog, aur bhi kitni filmo main use Kiya.
I don't see any possibility of improving relations with Pakistan unless Pakistan respects minorities living in that country. Persecution and pillaging done by Pakistani Muslims on Hindus must be compensated adequately. Improved relations with Pakistan looks highly unlikely.
