Tribute to The Legend - ''A Complete Singer''
by Mukesh Thakkar on Aug 05, 2006 07:19 AM

Mohd. Rafi is a synonim for "Complete Singer". He had enormous control on his voice and a wide range of gayaki. He could sing classicals and light songs with the same comfort. He is the only singer, who successfully matched the voice of evertime great personalities like Dilip Kumar / Dev Anand / Shammi Kapur / Guru Dutt / Rajendra Kumar / while keeping the listeners in good humour while singing for Mehmood / Johny Walker. He is the only singer who had sung widest variety of beautiful songs under the Singer - Music Directors like Hemant Kumar. He is probably the only singer who added Sone pe Suhaga for the classicals composed by Naushad Saab. I can list down atleast 200-300 songs as ever time great. Bravo India ! We all anxiously await Rafisaab's grand son in forefront.
