Amazing... 'anwar'

Bash many thanks for sharing...........credit to Debashish for respecting ANWAR by rendering one of his songs........as far as ratings go in my opinion Deboshish delivered a good kareoke performance.

once again thanks

Take care

Yes SK Bhai, Dabashish has done really a fantistic job.

It is much interesting and pleasing that one Rafi Clone tributes to another Rafi Clone.

Thanks a lot for sharing.

salaam anwar bhai,




hope ur ok brother!

firstly sorry to hear u LOST ur ANWAR collection!

look on the bright side lucky it was ANWARs collection & NOT someone like RAFIs collection where ud have in real trouble!

atleast ANWAR only sang a few songs really if u think about it & hopefully u ll get them back one way or another!




& secondly...




i think ur being a little unfair & harsh to DEBASHISH DASGUPTA althou i love ANWAR too but...

DEBASHISH is much much better than u give him credit it for, trust me his better than a karoke singer as u put it.

if he d had the LUCK & BACKING of someone like KUMAR SANU or especially SONU NIGAM he wud have done amzingly well - sadly like most talented artistes NO BACKING or SUPPORT cost him his career!



p.s.

i finally managed to com across 2 shows of ANWAR on video after nearly 15 years of search!

absolutely AMAZING!



take care.

BASH.

Hi SK bhai, well said abut Debashish I agree with you.

I will waiting eagerly for 2 shows of ANWAR on video.

Sallaam Bash.....................DEBASHISH WHO

Re ANWAR collections, I know I'll get every one of them back ; due to fabulous guys like yourself,

I dont think I'll ever loose RAFI collections they are treasured in audio cassette and CD's - not on computer

I look forward to watching ANWAR shows

Take care dost

salaam brothers,



iv gota be totally honest - iv had enuff of all this childish behaviour & all this silly drama!



WHO ARE GUYS TRYING TO FOOL?

i UNDERSTAND u love ANWAR & ur true fans i respect that but...

start appreciating other singers too pls!!!

just TRY IT!


sorry for being too HONEST try to forgive me!


take care.

BASH.

You once said that didnt you, SK? It is we, who are tired of your "childish behaviour & all this silly drama!" not the other way round.

Who are you trying to fool? You're just a wedding singer you're no Naushad you know.Your posts dont ring with credibility and you're not as honest as you'd like us to believe.

appears one has got off on the wrong side of the bed

Chill out

As I recall, you’ve in the past been advised to lose the ‘capital letters’.

Rather than sharing (be it at times perverted) views , one has; now resorted to shouting!

And stop contradicting yourself, began with “although i luv Anwar myself too but ...”

then wrote “after all who the hell was Anwar?”……… what’s that all about?

I’ll remind you who Anwar is, he’s the same bloke about whom RAFI saab said “if there’s any singer who could take my place after me it is he” source MD Kamal Rajasthani

True anwar did not accomplish greatness in terms of playback singing, partly because of management/advisors and personality/ego clashes and lifestyle etc

But what a great compliment to Anwar by RAFI

Bro show a little bit of respect,

if there are issues speak to us,

Everyone has ups and downs

Bash this is Anwar’s thread, so you’ll find views here that are obviously pro Anwar, that simply does not mean we don’t appreciate other singers,

I consider myself a big Anwar fan, but also have respect and admiration for other ‘refined’ singers, namely Sonu, Udit, Shreya etc, in fact on my YOUTUBE thingy you’ll find more Sonu vids than Anwar.

And Bash if we all were realistic i.e not living in a pretentious world then angels would greet us in our walks and shake our hands be amongst our closest friends.

ALL IS FORGIVEN

well maybe bash got a little upset but i never found anyone who knows about music more than bash,i went out of my way and spend so much money since i was a teenager to get any songs of the rafi clones on cd quality, the collection that i have on cd people don,t belive when i tell them what songs i have of mohd.aziz,shabbir and anwar.i share some with u guys for example bewafa ashiq. iam the biggest fan of aziz but i have to be fair, i was born in west indian culture and if u visit trinidad,guyana,suriname,etc, u will hear people blasting songs of rafi and kishoore from young to old, they were and will remain the best singers of all time, i was not a big fan of anwar , he was third on my list out of the three, but i hate to tell you guys that aziz,shabbir,anwar cannot sing everything because they are not versatile like rafi and kishore. so lets be honest with ourselves please, i know you must be shocked to hear this from aziz biggest fan in the universe. but guys think about it can anwar deliver a disco song, a real peppy number or just a fast pace song no way,u want examples listen to ahista ahista, he sang the romantics songs well but any one can sing romantic songs, maybe the one song anwar sang infront of rafi was superb thats why rafi said he is the only one that can replace him but in reality world nobody can replace rafi saab. you guys mention so many titles of anwar i have never heard of those films. shabbir and aziz regardless who don,t like them u will still see those movies they sang in on dvd and video, can someone show me cobra i have never heard of it and wonder who are the weak stars.i don,t want to say anything bad about aziz because i simply love him as a singer, but listen to disco bhangra why in the hell did the music director gave him a song like that to sing, he struggle with it so much,but this is the point iam try to prove none of the three singers are versatile. hope you guys will listen to the songs and see my point. anyways enjoy the music you like . this is my honest opinion so don,t take it to heart. take care guys

Serious? You cant be!

unfortunately iam sorry for being honest, i don,t know which fan you are but please do me a favor and listen to the songs of anwar and tell me you think he can sing any type of song, because he cant, all the clones adapted one part of rafi. anwar cannot sing a fast number listen to the full cd of ahista ahista or even padosan ki biwi.

Shazaad, you’ve articulated your views courteously

Shazaad trust me you’re not the only one that spent a lot of your hard earned money on music, during half term school vacations I would do serious grafting only then to spend a good proportion of my wage on rafi songs

Neither anwar, shabbir or mohd aziz were complete singers - agreed

But anwars voice was the most refined in terms of elegance and clarity

If one is really going to be ‘honest’ let’s not forget people have even at times mistaken anwar songs for rafi; songs from Yeh Ishq Nahin Ahsaan is but one classic example

I was never a fan of peppy numbers until sonu came in to the music scene;

let’s just face it, peppy numbers are not memorable (they’re here today and forgotten about tomorrow, if you catch my drift) some were good (but I can’t remember any!?) majority of the eighties decade was a disaster as far as peppy numbers were concerned - disco station disco or tohfa tohfa tohfa, laya laya laya , I am a disco dancer………………aaaahhhh – I am so glad I did not subscribe to this type of music – how embarrassing

and I am certainly not going to start now, so please don’t ask me to listen to peppy songs from the eighties

As far as all rounder is concerned – sonu is arguably the best, but the only thing he lacks in my view is that RAW vocal BASS

Neither anwar, shabbir or mohd aziz are going to benefit in any way from our petty and trivial squabbling, the sooner we realize this the better………………it’s pathetic

No problem with good humoured banter, it’s good for the uplifting of spirits, keep things in perspective and let's not get carried away

Take care
