A most versatile singer, Mohammed Rafi was India’s hugely popular playback singer in movies. His versatility included romantic numbers, lamentations, patriotic songs, bhajans, qawwalis and ghazals. Besides Hindi, he also sang in virtually every Indian language – in addition to Farsi, Arabic, English and even Dutch. His achievements won National, Filmfare and other awards. In 1967, the Government of India awarded him a Padma Shri. Rafi’s ability to adapt his voice to the character that the actor lip-synched on the silver screen was a particular asset.

He is the best singer in indian film industry. A very humble man ..He leads his life with dignity . He is right in dispute with lata ji in 1964 , lata ji was wrong. Actully Rafi saheb has no geeediness with money and he was saint (sadhu) .
