Second Edition of the Biography of Mohammad Rafi “Meri Awaz Suno”

- Vinod Viplav (Writer of the Biography)
After getting overwhelming response and appreciation, the first biography of great music legend Mohammad Rafi "Meri Awaz Suno" has come out with new look and more attractive features. The new edition of the book has more information, more pages and more photographs of Rafi Saheb.
As it was told in an earlier post in www.mohdrafi.com that the responses of the Rafi fans on the first edition of the book was unbelievable that has encouraged me to bring out the second edition of the book with additions. Being a writer and a diehard Rafi fan, I know that the appreciation which I got for the book is not due to my writing and my work, but because of the magic of the person who left us more than 27 years ago but his songs are still enthralling and delighting us. All I can only say that Mohd. Rafi is matchless and there would not be second Rafi in this universe. For Rafi fans like us, whose number may be millions, Mohammad Rafi is the one and only, source of inspiration and his songs are like Oxygen, in absence of which survival is impossible. We all Rafi fans not only want to listen his melodious voice but also want to know about each and every aspects of his life.
The first edition of the book was released in the inaugural function of Delhi Chapter of Rafi Foundation by renowned singing actress Padmashree Puspa Hans and well-known classical singer Padambhushan Shanno Kurana. The function was held at Punjabi Bhawan (New Delhi) on the eve of 27th death anniversary in which a number of personalities from the field of Music, Art and Culture and Media Participated. The book was also released by Mohd. Ali Ashraf Fatmi, Minister of State in Human Resource Development Minister in an overpacked function (Ek Sham, Rafi Ke Nam) on 31st July, 2007 in Patna - the Capital of Bihar.
This book has been published by Sachi Prakashan. In second edition of the book, which published only some days ago, there are additional chapters, information and photographs. This book is in Hindi, but we are trying hard to publish this book in English, Urdu and other languages so that Rafi fans of different linguistic backgrounds and knowledge can also read the book about Rafi Saheb.The second edition contain 176 pages and more than 20 chapters.
The price of the book is Rs. 150/ only (including postal/courier charges). Those who want to get this book can contact me on following address.
