SINGHAM AGAIN REVIEW

What in the multiverse of insanity was that.

I screamed shitless when I saw the trailer, and every time someone entered, I lost my shit. Because, it was crazy.

Oh maan. Like I don't understand why people are hating on it so freaking much.

Singham Again was decent, honestly. Agreed the star cast was overwhelming, but it actually had my interests satiated mainly. All their entries were cool, the puns hit well, certain scenes like the port burning scene had their fair share of adrenaline rush, acting was decent (I dare say even Arjun Kapoor was kinda okay). Overall, it was a cutesy retelling of Ramayana. I actually quite liked the way they presented the scenes and at different locations with the actual evidence of the real Ramayana.

Also, I have this weird habit of counting actors, at least the ones I know, so here we are:

Ajay Devgn as DCP Bajirao Singham

Jackie Shroff as Omar Hafeez

Ravi Kishan as Home Minister Raj Jaishankar

Kareena Kapoor Khan as Avni Kamat Singham

Shweta Tiwari as Devika Singh

Dayanand Shetty as Senior Inspector Daya Shetty

Ankit Mohan as Sarath

Deepika Padukone as DCP Shakti Shetty

Arjun Kapoor as Danger Lanka / Zubair Hafeez

Tiger Shroff as ACP Satya Bali

Akshay Kumar as DCP Veer Sooryavanshi

and holy shit.

Salman Khan as Inspector Chulbul Pandey

Did you know

Yamma Yamma..R.D. Burman was not satisfied with Mohammed Rafi's singing in this song and was planning to re-record it. However, that never happened because Rafi passed away soon after the original recording. It was the only song which R.D. Burman and Rafi sang together.

The January 1980 edition of Stardust magazine stated that when Parveen Babi went to Europe with Kabir Bedi, there was no hope of her returning back to India. The only other actress who had a westernized image who could replace Parveen Babi was Simi Garewal. Ramesh Sippy verbally spoke to Simi Garewal and told her the role was hers. But Parveen Babi returned back to work and Simi was bumped out of the film.

Parveen Babi suffered her first nervous breakdown on the sets of Shaan. When she completed to shoot of the song Pyar Karnewale she got the attack. After this song there is a scene Parveen Babi is in the car, she stops the car, then Amitabh Bachchan sits in the car, this scene was shot when Parveen Babi came back from U.S.and she resumed work by shooting this scene.

The Timeless Charm of Mohammed Rafi’s Music

The Indian music industry has seen numerous legendary voices over the years, but very few have left an indelible mark like Mohammed Rafi. His unparalleled versatility and soul-stirring renditions made him one of the most celebrated playback singers in the history of Indian cinema. With a career spanning over three decades, Rafi became the voice of emotions, seamlessly adapting to various musical genres and styles. His songs continue to be cherished by people of all generations, making him a timeless icon whose melodies remain fresh even in the contemporary music landscape.

Early Life and Musical Journey

Born in 1924 in Punjab, Mohammed Rafi's journey into the world of music was anything but ordinary. His passion for singing was evident from a young age, and his dedication to the craft soon caught the attention of music directors in the film industry. He made his playback singing debut in the 1940s, during a time when Bollywood music was undergoing a major transformation. With a naturally gifted voice that could convey deep emotions, Rafi quickly became a favorite among music composers and filmmakers. His ability to modulate his voice to suit different actors and film situations set him apart, making him one of the most sought-after singers of his time.

A Voice That Knew No Boundaries

What made Mohammed Rafi truly exceptional was his ability to excel in any genre of music. Whether it was a soulful ghazal, a high-energy qawwali, a romantic ballad, or a devotional bhajan, he infused each song with a distinct charm. His iconic song “O Duniya Ke Rakhwale” from Baiju Bawra showcased his powerful vocal strength, while “Chaudhvin Ka Chand” from the film of the same name revealed his ability to bring out the soft and soothing aspects of his voice. His songs were not just tunes but expressions of deep emotion, capable of moving listeners to tears or filling them with joy.

Unforgettable Collaborations

Rafi’s success was largely attributed to his collaborations with some of the finest composers in Bollywood. His partnership with Naushad resulted in some of the most melodious songs in Indian cinema. Together, they created masterpieces that are still considered the gold standard of film music. His work with S.D. Burman led to hits like “Tere Mere Sapne” and “Khoya Khoya Chand,” while his association with R.D. Burman produced some of the most energetic and groovy numbers of the 1970s. Additionally, Shankar-Jaikishan, Laxmikant-Pyarelal, and Madan Mohan all recognized Rafi’s extraordinary vocal range and composed music that brought out the best in him. These collaborations ensured that his voice reached every corner of the country, making him a household name.

Rafi’s Influence on Bollywood Stars

One of Mohammed Rafi’s greatest strengths was his ability to adapt his singing style to match the on-screen persona of various actors. He became the voice of some of Bollywood’s biggest stars, including Rajendra Kumar, Shammi Kapoor, Dev Anand, and Dharmendra. His ability to bring out the playful energy of Shammi Kapoor in songs like “Yahoo! Chahe Koi Mujhe Junglee Kahe” and the deep romantic essence of Dev Anand in “Dil Ka Bhanwar Kare Pukar” speaks volumes about his versatility. His voice had an innate ability to elevate an actor’s performance, making songs an essential part of the cinematic experience.

Enduring Popularity and Legacy

Even though Mohammed Rafi passed away in 1980, his music continues to thrive. His songs are still played on radio stations, at weddings, and during festive celebrations. With the advent of digital platforms, younger generations have also discovered the magic of his voice. Covers and remixes of his classics continue to be produced, but his original renditions remain unmatched in their purity and depth. Many contemporary playback singers consider him their idol and attempt to emulate his style, though few can capture the essence of what made him truly special.

The impact of Rafi’s music extends beyond India. His songs have a global following, with fans in countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, the UK, and the US. His voice transcended linguistic and geographical boundaries, proving that true artistry knows no limits.

Why Mohammed Rafi’s Songs Stand the Test of Time

What makes Rafi’s music timeless is its emotional depth and technical brilliance. Unlike fleeting trends that dominate the industry for short periods, his songs have a classic appeal that never fades. His ability to bring out human emotions through his singing ensures that his music remains relevant, regardless of changing tastes and advancements in recording technology. His melodies have a way of transporting listeners back in time, evoking memories and emotions that remain fresh despite the passing years.

Another reason for his enduring popularity is the sheer variety in his discography. His songs cater to every mood and occasion, making them a staple in Indian households. Whether it’s a romantic evening, a devotional gathering, or a celebration, there’s always a Mohammed Rafi song that fits perfectly.

Conclusion

The golden era of Bollywood music would be incomplete without Mohammed Rafi. His contribution to the industry is unparalleled, and his songs continue to be cherished by music lovers across generations. With a voice that could convey joy, sorrow, romance, and devotion with equal brilliance, he remains one of the most iconic figures in Indian music history. His melodies have stood the test of time, ensuring that his name and music will be celebrated for years to come. The legend of Mohammed Rafi lives on, proving that true talent never fades.
