MALACCA: The late Hindi singer Mohd Rafi Saab still continues to mesmerise fans through the world with his songs. The 1924-born singing sensation in the northern Indian state of Punjab first gained a break in Punjabi films in 1947 and then on Lahore radio in the early 70s. Subsequently, he went on to steal the hearts of millions in the Indian sub-continent, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
Now a quarter of a century after his death, Rafi who recorded more than 26,000 songs in his illustrious musical career spanning over 35 years, still commands a following particularly among the Malaysian Punjabi community.
