muhammad rafi:
He was born 24 december 1924.Every body knows that his first song was from a punjabi film Gul Baloch,yes his first song was from this film,made in Lahore,the song was:
sun ja ne sun ja
tere roop ne bada sataya
sohniye ne heeriye teri yaad ne bada sataya
sanu nit sayapa paiya
with zeenat begum,that was his first song for film industry,check an other song from this film,his first solo:

both songs were picturiese on hero of the film, gul zaman...
But film Gul Baloch released in 1944 in lahore.Before this film a famous punjabi film Mangti released in 1942,music by pt.gobind ram in this film rafi also sing a song with manorma,check this song:

===========================================================Dear Sir,
Whatever I have read about Rafi Saheb so far, Gul Baloch (produced in 1942, but released in 1944) music directed by shyamsunder, was his first debut song. A duet with Zeenat Begum. It is very surprising to know that "Mangti" was released in 1942, with Rafi Saheb's songs. Can you kindly explain more about the scene, or if possible, please upload the REAL first song of Rafi Saheb. This will be a great news to Rafi lovers.

Hello Abbas and Nayana
The discussion should be about Rafi Saab's First Urdu/Hindi Songs
those films that are above mentioned are from punjabi films
let us discuss about Hindi the Hindi film industry only, therefore his first two songs
are from Pehle AAP (1944) Music Naushad Song Hindustan ke hum hain
and Then Gaon ki Gori (1944) Music Shyam Sunder Song Aji dil ho kaaboo mein with G. M. Durrani and chorus. Just remember Mohd Rafi Saab's First Hindi film songs, in the Hindi Film Industry.
