Legendary Mohammed Rafi was a force to reckon with in the 1960s -- more so, when he sung romantic songs. But he was equally excellent when he sung qawwaalis, or ghazals. Such was his fanbase and popularity that when the singer bade goodbye to the world in 1980, more than 10,000 people marked their presence in one of the largest funeral processions the country had seen.
On his 95th birth anniversary, let's look back at the most popular ghazals sung by him.
Kala Pani Hum Bekhudi Mein Tumko Pukare
Koi Sagar Dil Ko Behlata Nahi
Rang Aur Noor Ki Baraat Kise Pesh Karoon
Hui Sham Unka Khayal Aa Gaya
Meri Mehboob Kahin Aur Mila Kar Mujhse
Guzre Hain Aaj Ishq Mein Hum
Diya Ye Dil Agar Usko Bashar Hai Kya Kahiye
Nuktam Cheen Hai Gam E Dil
Falsafe Ishq Mein Pesh Aaye Sawalon Ki Tarha
Zikr Us Parivash Ka
