Mohammed Rafi ~ O Duniya Ke Rakhawale (Baiju Bawra)

MOHAMMED RAFI ~ (24 DEC 1924 ~ 31 JULY 1980)

BIRTH CENTENARY ~ EPISODE 4

We at Navras Records were very privileged to have become closely acquainted with Naushad Ali (1919 ~ 2006), one of the most remarkable and renowned Hindi film Music Directors who composed some of the legendary singer Mohammed Rafi Saheb’s greatest songs dating back to 1940’s till his passing.

Naushadji had re-recorded with Mohammed Rafi some of those greatest songs in stereo sound around mid to late 1970’s. He also had in his archives some songs which were never released, including film and non-film songs. He very kindly agreed to compile these songs into an album which he called “Naushad Presents The Last Journey of Mohammed Rafi”.

This album was released by Navras Records in 1998 and features five of his most popular and greatest songs along with four other songs from their original master recording which till then had not been released into public domain.

This song, “O Duniya Ke Rakhawale” written by the great lyricist Shakeel Badayuni and composed by Naushad Ali, is from the iconic film “Baiju Bawra” (1952) which featured many outstanding songs still fondly remembered.
