Rafi did this track justice

There’s no two ways about the fact that Likhe Jo Khat Tujhe – the only song from Kanyadaan (1968) on this blog – was an evergreen song, and one that would definitely be on the list of best songs about letters.

It was rendered by Mohammed Rafi.

The track, which was composed by Shankar Jaikishan, was penned by Gopaldas Saxena, whose nom de plume was Neeraj.

Apart from being a poet with a brief but marvellous association with the Hindi film industry as a lyricist, he was a professor of Hindi literature at Aligarh's Dharma Samaj College.
