Md. Rafi real bharat ratna




you must be thinking that this is an article about the famous songs of  Md. Rafi,apparently its not as i am not a great fan of him(ya i always praised his singing).  it is about person  who was very good at heart being in a profession which has seen most anxious people who just ruined career of others to save their ground(other than politics.)
Ya its about Md. Rafi , who was just forgotten in this generation again due to his background as no strategic support ( which is always meant to have benefit for themself ) was behind him , and why should he get support  as he is a middle class Muslim from Punjab , i mean no strategic advantage in supporting him as how many muslims are there in punjab. Also why film industry remembers his name as he had no money to finance movie, infact he harmed music industry by raising voice against royality.
Being recognized as most talent singer ever produced by indian movie industry who could  sing classical like professional and youth song as rockstar, was not given Bharat ratna
and to our shame when upcoming actor, and useless fellow are awarded padmabhushan he was only padmashree.
A singer who was awarded as “singer of millenium “ of hindi song was so less to Lata mangeskar, sorry sorry sorry , Lata Tai, that he couldn't get padmabhushan even
in comparison to so called Lata “bharat kokila”, (who killed upcoming kokilas by blackmailing director and producer ), Mr. Rafi was the one who not only encouraged but recognized the potential of his biggest rival Kishore Kumar.
And it was not that he lost his relation with him after losing 6 consecutive filmfare, but it got more bounded with time.
Seriously india should ashamed of calling Lata bharat kokila when we got M S Subalakshmi . She had so sweet voice that gandhiji wanted to listen "Vaishno Jan to taaine kahaiye" ,   only in her voice even knowing the fact that she couldn't speak  hindi
Not only this , Lata killed so much career  by putting blackmailing condition of Defacto singing
When it come to royalty , argument of Md. Rafi can define his greatness.  Lata so called Tai, was arguing that singer are comprable to scientist(as they were only one who got royalty on that time) as they were one who were behind success and failure of song, Mr. Rafi was very much clear that song could be termed as  a team work of singer lyricist, music director , composer and even band person, so if royalty was to to be given , it should be distributed to all.
These word which defined idealism for normal people  were so worse for Lata that she never ever sang a duet with Md. Rafi. No doubt that her stubbornness won her great royalty.
Our same Tai was vocal on mumbai development but wait , not in support but against it as some flyover was made near her house and she was fearful that her voice may be hampered by the pollution created by flyover which was close to her window.
At last i want to say that please atleast , put regional politics apart from art and sports in which people just for recognition destroyed  their life.

    "..to our shame when upcoming actor, and useless fellow are awarded padmabhushan.." indeed.

Rafi saab is a great human being and the greatest singer ever...in the hearts of his fans....He doesnt need awards or recognisition as i am ashamed to say that in india only cruel and selfish people gets awards and unnecessary fame which they dont deserve(LATA)....He has won several polls with no one even close to him for the singer of the millenium....
