Thanks
God gifted voice of Rafi saab, his classical music education, his hard work and putting is soul in singing has made all his songs exceptionally unique and a piece of work we can present to world as gift from India!
Bharat Ratna needs Mohammed Rafi
Someone who attended on 23 May 2015 in New Delhi, please report how was the meeting, what happened etc. Thanks
It will be the LEAST that an adoring Nation can do, for the Greatest Singer of all time! Whenever I hear songs like “Jahaan Daal Daal Par Sone Ki” or “Kar Chale”, I get goosebumps. this is no exaggeration, even though I have heard each of these songs maybe 5oo times!
And that is just two Patriotic songs sung by this colossus… he has sung for so many Actors and Music Directors, for Heroes, Supporting Actors and Comedians, spanning different genres of Music!
If Rafi Saab is not given the Bharat Ratna< I sincerely believe we are being ungrateful to the Maestro who has defined Playback Singing itself! May this Campaign gain momentum and culminate in the richly-deserved Award for the Favourite Singer of Millions of fans in India and abroad!
Rafi sab jaisr gayak aur insan ko bharatratna aut dada sahab awards milana hi chahiye.wo iske sachche haladar hein.ek hi vakya mein kahein to rafi sab ko ye award dekar hamare in awards ko hi sammanit karenge.
Rafi sab jaisr gayak aur insan ko bharatratna aut dada sahab awards milana hi chahiye.wo iske sachche haladar hein.ek hi vakya mein kahein to rafi sab ko ye award dekar hamare in awards ko hi sammanit karenge.
Respected Authority ….. Many personalities got ” Bharat Ratna” but they do not have part of our day to day life… BUT rafi saab is always and all the time is with us by way of audio visuals and it gives relaxation , peace to our mind… above all he is the best human being… and if lata mangeshkar can get this award why not he? if u keep the same parameter for him , he will be much more superior in all the fields…..
Pl consider and ” Bharat Ratna Award bhi unki raha dekh raha hai”…… khud Pandit Nehru, Indiraji, ‘Balasahab Thakrey. Sachin Tendulkar etc. all are die hard fans of this legend.

Every song is gem. Kitney bhi baar suno . man nahi bharta.
Rafi Magic will never fade.
Din dhal Jayee , Rafi na jaye.
Mohammed Rafi the sublime singer and someone who stood for and preached values, was kept away deliberately from the national Honor clearly because of political reasons. But those who love and feel his divine existence every single moment, through thousands of his soulful renditions, will keep up this fight till the last breath……
THIS IS THE PRIDE OF THE INDIANS THAT MOHD RAFI SAHIB DESIDED TO SETTLE IN INDIA AND WE GOT ONE WONDERFULL AND MISMERISED SINGING VOICE THAT HAS NO COMPERISION AND EQILIZATION AND WILL REMAIN ON TOP TILL THE END OF THIS EARTH THERE ARE BILLIONS OF FANS OF MOHD RAFI IN THE WORLD AND EVERYBODY KNOWS THERE IS NO ANY PARRELER SINGER TO THE GREAT MOHD RAFI EVEN AFTER 35 YEARS OF HIS DEATH THE GOVT.OF INDIA IS NOT YET TO KNOW THAT WHAT CALLIBER THIS GREAT SINGER WAS ?

EVEN THEN THE GOVT.OF INDIA HAS GIVEN BHARAT RATNA TO THOSE PERSONS WHO ARE NOT SO POPULAR AND ARE NOT DESERVE FOR THIS GREAT AWARD AFTER A LONG GAP MR. MADAN MOHAN MALVIA HAS GIVEN BHARAT RATNA POSTHUMOSLY WHILE HE WAS THE FOUNDER OF BANARAS HINDU UNIVERSITY BECAUSE MR.NARENDERA MODI WON THE LOK SABHA ELECTION SO IMMIDIATELY HE DECIDED TO GIVE THIS PRITEGIOUS AWARD TO SHRI MADAN MOHAN MALVIA IN THIS CONTEXT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THE SAME AWARD SHOULD BE GIVEN TO SIR SYED AHAMED KHAN WHO WAS THE FOUNDER OF ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY BECAUSE THE SAME WORK HE DID SO I REQEST TO THE INDIAN GOVT.THAT HE MUST BE AWARDED THE BHARAT RATNA TO MOHAMMED RAFI SAHIB BECAUSE HE REALY DESERVE FOR THIS AWARD AND I CONGRATULATE SHRI SANJEEV KUMAR DIXIX SHRI GAUTAM SHRI VINOD VIPLAV FOR DOING EFFORTS IN THIS NOBEL CAUSE ,I WOULD SAY THAT OUR MOHAMMED RAFI SAHIB IS THE JEWEL FOR WHOLE EARTH

Voice of greatest singer Mohd Rafi can not be a voice of a human being.
A new research about Rafi sb revealed by Dr.Vinay Rathi & Dinesh Bhatt (bird sientist,researcher by UGC ) that Brown Rock Chat (Mohd.Rafi of bird-world) sings 100 times better than KOYAL.I have the proof in this reference.
Sir i had met Rafi sahab in Nov. 1972 this is my luck only however i was merely 17th year old village-student then.

CONGRATULATIONS…VERY GOOD MOVE..WOULD BE THERE..
Rafi Sahab ives in our heart ever.
Rafi Sahab Universe Ratan.
We want Bharat Ratan .
Please see Zee News Conclave: One Year of Modi Government – Part V on Zee News website. Yesterday while being interviewed, union minister Dr. Jitendra Prasadly fondly remembered our beloved Rafisaab and his work not once but thrice thereby showing his love, affection and adminiration to him unhasitantly amongst the august audience. It is indeed heartening to see him referring Rafisaab even without a well worth context.
I therefore request all the members associated with this noble cause to meet Dr. Jitendra Prasad and seek his help / patronage to accomplish the task of getting Bharat Ratna for Rafisaab.
With regards
Ashok Parekh
Dear Sanjeev ji,
All the very best for a successful campaign to get the
Bharath Ratna Award to Rafi Saab.There are millions of
his fans who is admiring and keeping him near their soul.
There are singers who have no other choice to show the
“Complete and Perfect Singer” other than Rafi Saab.That
include Mannadey,Mahendra Kapoor,Yesudas,SPB,Talat
Mehmood,Udith Narayan,Sonu Nigham etc.etc.Rafi Saab
is the inspiration and livelyhood for thousands or lakhs.
To lead as a performer as well as a good human being
is not easy.Moreover in all the recent polls Rafi Saab came
on top.Rafi Saab is the cause of unity at least in the Indian
subcontinent.So considering all theses it is high time to
confer Bharath Ratna Award to Rafi saab at the earliest.
mohd rafi saab khud ek vishw rathn hai unko aur koe rathn ke zaroorath nahe hai
Unfortunately, as I am outside India, I would not be able to attend this event, but would like to congratulate the Organizers for mobilizing this great movement of proceeding to Jantar Matar in Delhi on 23rd May 2015.
I wish them all success and fervently pray that the BJP Government acknowledge and accept the fact that ‘this person truly deserves to be given the highest and coveted civilian award’ of India (at least posthumously), 35 years after the death of this great singer & a lion-hearted and magnanimous human being.
God gifted voice and the ‘true king of music’. Great human being, down to earth and humble, assigning that everything he achieved was due to the blessings of God Almighty. Never boasted that it was his singing and his talent that made him the greatest.
I had the privilege of being into his award room many times, where the entire room is filled with umpteen awards for the songs he had rendered in the years that he ruled the Industry – spanning almost 4 decades.
Being a part of his extended family (as my daughter is married to Rafi Sahib’s grandson), I feel proud and honored to be associated with this great human being and one of the greatest singers our mother India has ever produced.
He deserves the highest civilian award of ‘Bharat Ratna’ (albeit posthumously) as he is really ‘Bharat ka ek Ratan Insaan Hai’.
Being not Indian I feel equally proud to be one of a billion fans of the great Mohammad Rafiji. Because he was, is and shall always remain the most wonderful singer of this Sub-continent. Was bewitched with his supreme melodious voice from early childhood and remain same till date, aged 62. To me he is the greatest and sweetest song bird among all the major languages spoken everyday by millions of our brethren in this Continent.
So it’s not Bharat Ratna that would make Rafiji honored, rather the gov’t of India would make them proud by awarding him it posthumously, and delight us all the members of NM for BR to Rafi sahab. Since visa etc. are issues to visiting India, otherwise I would love to join the silent movement and offer my respect to this suron ka Badshah. Hoping the gathering on 23-05 a great success, InshaAllah
Muhammad Rafi Sahab k liye jitna bhi kaho sub kam hai….. Phir bhi..
Meethi Sur wale tera jawab nahi
koi tujhsa nahi araboon me….
Mohd Rafi is the world Ratna ……God made one Sun and one Mohd Rafi for our Earth .
Mohd Rafi got God award that more than 35 years ago we lost him still he is the best singer in all votes sites ……
Humlogon ka samoohik prayas zuroor saphal hoga
Its really a great MOVE. I am unable to attend this get together at Jantar mantar due to my personla problem. I wish the event a Great Success. I am sure the present Govt will definitely consider awarding BHARAT RATNA to Rafi Sahab. Its long due. The confer of this great Award is the true justice done to the most deserving play back singer of India that the world has ever seen. When rafi sahab sings we feel as if the actor on the screen him self is singing. Thats the level of Adaptibility of great Rafi Sahab . We feel as if Shammi Kapoor , Johny Walker, Dharmendra, rajendra kumar, Jeetender, Guru dutt are singing by them selves.
LONG LIVE RAFI SAHAB.
Great movement. Great news. Rafi saheb should have been conferred Bharat Ratna long back.
Very Good Efforts. I feel 31/07/2015 is final cal 2 Govt. to confer BR to Rafi Saab.
It is a good news that a National Movement for ‘Bharat Ratna to Rafi Sahab’ is being organised at Jantar Mantar on 23/05/2015. Really RAFI SAHAB is deserved for this highest civilian Award of our Nation for his contribution to Indian Music. Being a fan of this great singer I offer my best wishes for its success and hope that the efforts being made by his fans will gain their goal one day definitely. Expect our hon’ble Prime Minister Shri. Modiji will look into this matter personally and do the needful to conferring this highest award to our Nations most respected and talented singer Mohammad Rafi Sahab.
Jai Hind. Jai Rafi Sahab
With best wishes for its success.
It is very good news that a nation-wide movement is being started to force the Central Govt. for awarding ‘BHARAT-RATNA’ to the greatest singer of the century RAFI-SAAB.Due to age problems I can’t attend at JANTAR-MANTAR, NEW DELHI on 23rd May 2015.However my all the best wishes with SANJAYJI & organizers.No praise/certificate is too high for the versatile,genius & lion-hearted singer.The central GOVT. has time & again failed miserably and forgotten the talents and humanitarian deeds of the true INDIAN in all respect.Now atleast after knowing Rafiji-as greatest singer of the century the GOVT will realise the blunder. I hope this silent-movement will strengthen & will stop till the coveted award is announced. Thanks
Will some kind soul publish the article in English. Thank you.

This time Modi govt will approve for Bharat Ratna Award to Mohd Rafisaab..
It is a great news… It is a good news for all Rafi fans…
If this award is to have any credibility than you can’t have anyone more worthy than the great Mohd Rafi. It’s a disgrace that he hasn’t been awarded this decades ago but I still say better late than never and they need to stop dragging their feet and get on with it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rafi sahab is much more than World Ratna !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent move for the right cause. It is rather delayed. anyway better late than never. It wud be a big opportunity for the Rafian fans to express their solidarity with our beloved and unparallel/uncomparable Rafi Saab in the world of music. My hats off to the organizers. It wud be my pleasure to be with Rafian fans, my brothers and sisters meeting them at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi
my rich regards to all Rafinan fans.

Giving Bharat Ratna will be a wise decision . Better late than never.
rafi saheb ta umra hamare dil me rahenge, sari zindagi unke geet sunkar aur gakar bade huye hain
Please would someone kindly translate this article which I’d love to read into English. I know Sanjeevji is a person I admire and respect so much for all his efforts in trying to ensure justice is done by having the great legend Mohd Rafi have the Bharat Ratna bestowed upon him.
Good luck, and may god bless you and above all thank you and keep up the good work, I know I speak on behalf of millions of fans.
