This is a very well written account of Rafi Saab's life. I had read hindi version earlier, but this one is by far the best biographical account. Many unknown facts about him were very well captured in the book. Few

0) His first public performance in presence of K.L. Saigal

4) Invitation from Jawaharlal Nehru
5) His fan following in Westindies and ...

The untold story was revealed is really interesting.I congratulate Y...

WHO THE HELL IS INTERESTED ABOUT THE AUTHOR'S LIFE?? We...

What a lovely book this was. Once I started reading it, I didn't want to let go until it was finished. A huge thank you to the author for shedding some more light on the life of my favourite singer and the man behind the voice.
