Bow to yuan Gaban was extraordinary musical. Another S-J Lata Rafi will never be born. They all come once in a life time

@Mrpkv1006 - I too have to agree with you, though sadly.

What a beautiful song! Great singing and great music direction!! Thanks for uploading....

@TheJaikishanS - You are most welcome, my dear friend.

Hello Yuan. TY. Nice duet. Nargis gets the credit for it. Why? Because it was she who brought Rafi and Lata back together after years of their dispute. Dispute was over "Royalty" for playback singers. Lata wanted royalty from producers. Rafi's philosphy was once a singer sang, got paid for it, he / she is done with the song. It was during the recording of "Tasveer Teri Dil Mein" from Maya that they argued in presence of Salilda who agreed with Lata. Gaban was a 1967 film.

@RealMusicKing - We are the LUCKY people on earth!

Due to their "reunion", we are lucky and fortunate to hear/watch HUNDREDS of gems AGAIN.

Otherwise, we would have "lost" all of them forever!

Nargis must be commended for the excellent service she rendered to the MAN KIND by mediating, though Wikipedia says it was S. D. Burman who intervened to "solve" the problem. May their souls Rest In Peace.

Whoever it was, WE are the LUCKY WINNERS of the outcome.

Thank you my dear friend.

I am sorry but I think there could not have been a better duet than Lata and Rafi. What legends!
