Why Mohd. Rafi is best? My views and plans for Rafi.co.in...

[91943]

1) Mohamed was, is, and will remain the best singer. Full stop. There will be never one like him.

2) Lat is, and will remain the best singer. Full stop. There will be never one like her

[abmindia]

WELL DONE, KEEP IT UP.

[abmindia]

There is huge demand to award Bharat Ratan to Sachin Tendulkar. If so why not Mohammed Rafi? Here I put 3 strong points> (1) Rafi saab is eligible as he is from the category comes under this award, while sports does not. (2) Rafi saab died, while Tendulakar is alive (3) The great singer who sung more than 35,000 songs in various languages which is more than Tendulkar's total runs !!! So Rafi saab is a very strong candidate.

[winthis1]

Liked your Idea, and acknowledge your efforts........ Good work boy......

[PRATIKHA]

Kishoreda is definitely the best.Rafi is far behind.

[gengarjetty]

@PRATIKHA :

yes, rafi has 1 wife but kishore has 4 doesnt he? poor rafi saahab, lagging behind.

[akulsaxena]

@PRATIKHA

Tu paagal hai.

[suriblingblinga]

@rafisaabsfan

Nehru sahab gave mohd rafi a silver medaille.. how can you say relegion played a big role...

[suriblingblinga]

... as huge Rafi sahab fan you should know that.. bud i know that u are not who you say you are..you are a hindu hater look at youre channel you are a conservativ muslim who idolises mohd rafi only for the fact that he is a good singer and muslim! thats not a kind of fan rafi Sahab wanted. I want to say one thing to the hindus and muslims like rafisaabsfan! Stop fighting abaut religion.

Rafi sahab teach us to be human he is the best example of a human kind...

[a918ut]

samples: man tarapat hari darashan, nache man mora, ye ishq ishq hai, chahon ga maai tujhe, jag dile diwana, meri awaaz suno, subha na ayi, just few samples to understand why Rafi Saheb is The Greatest. He was a God gift to the Indian Subcontinent. Please do not make it a issue which faith he belonged to. Kalpana Chawala was of an Indian origin astronaut and Indians proudly mention her as "Indian", should it hurt the Americans? If a muslim is proud to say Rafi is greatest, why make it an issue?

[suriblingblinga]

Because she''Rafisaabsfan''

thinks that hindu people discriminates mohd rafi sahab which is totally nonsense also she has been very unrespectfull to other singers Like Mukesh talat mahmood etc. if you read a few pages back u would understand. and she is doing evrything that Rafi sahab did not wanted to happen,i agree with you on the fact that a muslim afcourse is proud of another muslim but what she is doing is extremism she is forcing her views on other people.Religion was not a problem!

[suriblingblinga]

Rafisahabfan is telling nonsense...

Religion was not a problem...

you know why?

i tell you...

Rafi sahab did not want you to see him as a muslim singer he wanted you to see him as a human! otherwise he and naushad an talat would have gone to pakistan! like noor jehan bud he did not go because india had more to offer him.

Rafi sahab sang bhajans,and he sang songs like tu hindu banega na muselmaan banega insan ki aulad..

Because he wanted to be seen as human not as muslim singer...

[ninjastylemafia]

lol moogic...

[sam7748]

What silly, childish arguments. There's really no need to compare. Rafi was the most versatile singer and his voice touched millions. God bless Rafi Sahib.

[karimwithlove]

good job

[anurawus]

Religion problem hahaha whos telling this. See the fan list in youtube itself you will know the religion thing. Rafi, Kishore and Mukesh all share number one. If it was religion or pakistan it would have been 1 to 10 Rafi then Md. Aziz and so on.

[ammar415]

I m Sorry man. I apologise. Sorry. But people say such silly things that i get angry. But again i m sorry

[ammar415]

Never mind. Dont waste ur precious time by replying to people like suriblingblinga . He is mentally handicapped. I can assure you. I consider it disgrace to Muhammad Rafi to write that manhooooooos singers name in the same line. who says there are substitutes of Rafi Sahib they are ahmaq of 1st degree.

[suriblingblinga]

and yes they did Sonu Nigam sang Madhuban mein radhika great people even thaught that it was ectuallly rafi sahab that was singing look it up here on youtube -_-

[suriblingblinga]

Let me tell you something they tried to copy mukesh but they failled because its to hard i ask you to listen to Shabbir Kumar and tell me that that isnt rafi's voice T.T its easy to copy rafi but when it comes to copy mukesh only babla mehta succeed and It was Nauhsad who told mukesh to change his style of singing Naushad,Shankar Jaikishan,SD Burman and more who aksed mukesh And for actors even Shammi Kapoor used mukesh socha tha pyar.!Manoj Kumar mukesh was loyal to his frendship..

[suriblingblinga]

with raj kapoor. And Many directors came to him but he did not took evry song rafi did!i am not saying mukesh is better because i know rafi has a more trained voice i only aksing to give Mukesh chand Mathur the respect he diserve even after death mukesh got a award for chancal sheetal and kabhi kabhi..Mukesh sang kahin door jab. for Rajesh Khanna and why? because Kishore could sing it the way mukesh did rafi could sing socha tha pyar as mukesh did thats why they choose mukesh The three leading.

[suriblingblinga]

singers are Mukesh Rafi and Kishore, you can't say with a bold statement which one is better. you can say that rafi has a more trained voice but that doesnt make him better.And the idea that your involving relegion tho this is absurt! how can you say that Raj kapoor is that kind of person he made much films acting as a muslim. Religion did not play any part just that Raj kapoor liked mukesh voice more that rafi's

[suriblingblinga]

Totally agreed with biyer08

[ammar415]

I m sorry. but you have to change your views

[biyer08]

(Contd) I note among the four singers that came to your mind Mukesh is one. So he could not possibly be incompetent after all! Thank u very much for listening.

[biyer08]

(Contd)Further if you are saying Rafi Saheb is the best because he was a great human being perhaps you are right because you may have personal knoweledge of him but his personal qualities are not in question .He was a playback singer and as music lovers it will only be just and proper to limit our thoughts and comments to his songs and musical capabilities and compare him with other singers only on that front. (CONTD)

[biyer08]

(Contd) the other good singers of that time while adoring Mohd rafi ,if he does it he is biased.Can you tell me why Kishore kumar's voice was always used for Rajesh Khanna? Correct! his voice suited Rajesh Khanna!Mukesh was a great singer ,perhaps you don't listen to some of his good songs.They all have sung many songs some very good some not that good. But again playback singing uses a very limited amount of a singer's talent. Mind you they have to sing only for three to six minutes ....(Contd)

[biyer08]

... chances,producers have made him sing Telugu songs bengali songs and so on,so your statement about a so called biased society doesn't hold water.If the society is biased how come Naushad was held in such a high esteem? Rafi Saheb's "Oh Duniyake rakhwale " is still regarded as one of the best songs.Mohd Rafi may be a great singer that doesn't mean there were not other good singers during his time.I like Rafi's song but I love Talat Mehmood's ghazals as well.One should not forget ...(CONTD)

[biyer08]

ammar415!I am sorry you seem to have suffered discrimination that's why you are hurt and making such dogmatic statements.But truth is far from what you have said.Raj Kapoor took mukesh in the films he acted because mukesh's voice suited him like a glove.Mukesh's voice has a pathos and an air of sarcasm in it and Raj always potrayed a chacter which mocked at the social injustice.Further India is not made of one Raj Kapoor there are so many other producers and rightly Mohd Rafi got numerous .....

[rfikss]

I m a great fan of Rafi Saab but SIR Ji u omitted Manney Dey, Mahendra, Asha totally which is impossible. They was golden singers of yesteryears.... U r bias to your own choice and let me choice of my singers ... rafi, kishore, manney dey, mukesh, mahendra, lata asha and a few more ...

[ammar415]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA mukesh is singer????????  Jao moon Dho ker aao bhya He was not singer he was highly incompetent person patronised by Raj kapoor who was biased hindu!!!!

[suriblingblinga]

how dare u to insult mukesh he was a great singer.the diffrent is rafi stared training his voice at a age of 13 and mukesh at a older age mukesh was discoverd by Motilal a great actor of those times now youre telling me that he don't know what talent is? i agree the fact rafi has a more trained voice,but i disagree that ure instulting Mukesh!! it isnt just his frendship with Raj kapoor it was also his voice and skills!!!

[biyer08]

Sorry sir!when u said u think Rafi is the best,a bold statement,I didn't mind it. It is because indeed he was a great playback singer and I love most of his songs. But when u brought his personal life I think your arguement holds no water as you r judging his singing capabilities based on his personal life ,which has no relevance to his public performance.your analysis is lopsided ,you have omitted the names of the contemporary great singers Manna Dey and Asha.u r just a devout Rafi fan.

[ammar415]

Come on Man dont be offended yar ... Rafi was and will remain best. He went to to the top in a highly biased hindu society where likes of raj kapoor were present who patronised highly incompetent singers like Mukesh.

[suriblingblinga]

RELEGION DID NOT PLAY ANY ROLE Talat mahmood he was a good frend of mukesh once a chinese prime minister came to india and asked talat mahmood to sing a mukesh song awaara hoon tlt said no thats mukesh's song i can't sing it talat sang the song and mukesh responded with this:if i'd make another movie i want you to sing for me there was no fight between religion!! so i dont know what your trying to say!! rafi also sang for raj kapoor:mein zindagi mein hardam rota hi raha hoon(rafi on raj kapoor)

[suriblingblinga]

Rafi is the best,Mukesh is the best,Kishore is the best,three leading male singers of bollywood i think we can't say who is the best they are all legends i know that mohd.rafi has no equal but mukesh chand mathur is too a male singer with no equal and the same of kishore. NO ONE CAN SING THERE SONGS LIKE THEMSELF... i will tell you who i think is the best the best singers are : Rafi,Mukesh,Kishore.The same story of the female singers Lata,Asha etc.

[ammar415]

Mukesh??????????? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Jao bhya moon dho ker aao

kISHORE KO CHALO PHIR BHI GRACE MARKS DEY KER PASS KER DETEY HIEN

[suriblingblinga]

Raj kapoor is now dead but still People listen to songs of mukesh why? because he can't sing? a am a huge fan of rafi and mukesh and i see no equal between those they are good in there own class!! your saying that raj kapoor chose mukesh because of relegion thats not true in!!

[ammar415]

Be realistic yar tell me what is good in mukesh . You can never win this argument please change your views. Sooner u change better for u.

[suriblingblinga]

There are mutch clones of rafi for example : mohd aziz--wel hell yes if i listen to his songs he is just like mohd rafi the same voice the same skills and not forget to mention sonu nigam- I hope you can mention a mukesh clone..?? i know mukesh wasn't as good as rafi but you are saying that he hasn't any talent..Unlike to rafi he did not took evry song he chose only the best songs rafi made like 600 songs in a yeas most of those songs were flops mukesh had like 200 songs and 200 were hit songs!!

[TAZ39XXX]

I mean no disrespect to any singer, but the argument as to who is the best singer, is summed up by the song of HAATHI MERE SAATHI, mukesh and kishore tried to sing that song, but failed miserably, and in the end it was rafi sahib who saved the day! that song was crucial to the story line of the film, which meant, no song no film! everybody wants to follow the best, thats why more people tried to copy rafi sahibs voice but no one will ever achieve that!

[ammar415]

You have given too many proofs of your immaturity. Now please do not comment any more.i m as sure of your stupidity as of my death. I will never forget you. I Will pray that you b granted a brain!

[suriblingblinga]

you are calling me immature pls hold a mirror before you and look good at you're self you are disrespecting other singers, i never said mukesh was better than rafi i said that you can't choose who is better if rafi was better than evryone else you would c that for example his wikipedia page it says that he was ONE of the LEADING MALE SINGERS i does not say is was the best and you know why you must stop compare singers to each other that's insane enjoiy of music

[suriblingblinga]

pls don't call you're self a rafi fan because you only listen to his music but you dont understand shit of it because if you did you would never be so disrespectfull to others rafi was a great human and you can find that in songs but people only listen to his voice try to understand what he is singing rafi was a very god fearing rafi sahab said i did not sing this it was god who gived me the power to do it. check shahid rafi here on youtube he tells this.pls Listen and UNDERSTAND rafi's songs

[2711naheed]

Enough cannot be said about the greatest singer in the world ever. Inimitable even today. What control, what power, what stamina,what talant, what skill, what character.Undervalued underrated in his life.

[786maq]

Nice one.. keep up the good work...

[MONKraz]

You forgot to mention a big name (though always shadowed by Lata).....The Aasha ....!great duets with rafi...and solos also....i think more versatile than lata...
