Mohammed Rafi (24 December 1924 – 31 July 1980) was an Indian playback singer and one of the most popular singers of the Hindi film industry. Rafi was notable for his versatility; his songs ranged from classical numbers to patriotic songs, sad lamentations to highly romantic numbers, qawwalis to ghazals and bhajans. He was known for his ability to mould his voice to the persona of the actor, lip-synching the song on screen in the movie. Between 1950 and 1970, Rafi was the most sought after singer in the Hindi film industry. He received six Filmfare Awards and one National Film Award. In 1967, he was honoured with the Padma Shri award by the Government of India.

SikhNet values artists & musicians

SikhNet deeply respects the artists listed in the Sikhnet Gurbani Media Center and we honor the hard work it takes to create beautiful and spiritually uplifting music. Live recordings are shared under SikhNet's Fair Use policy. All other recordings are shared with the understanding that you, as an artist, have given us, SikhNet, permission to post these tracks.

In early 2023, SikhNet will introduce our next iteration of the Gurbani Media Center. Please contact us directly if you would like any of your studio recordings removed from the Gurbani Media Center or if you would like to have your artist page disabled in its entirety. Because we may not have current contact information, we need you to communicate with us to request these changes. If we do not hear from you prior to the launch of our new system in 2023, our default setting will be that you are sharing your recordings with us according to SikhNet's most recent Voluntary Upload Agreement. Thank you for your kind attention to this matter.
