Yes the RAFI HOLIDAY is here to stay and will have its new avatar each year. Can we name it as RAFI DIVAS ?? Think of this. We can surely do with an entire article on the comments itself. That would be great too, umm, lets see maybe we can one of these days. Meanwhile, Ashok Dalmia has sent us all this link to the photos arranged by BBR : http://picasaweb.google.com/rafiashok/RafiHoliday# Videos will be uploaded by Zareef on this site by next week and Ashok too will send the DVD of the entire programme around the same time. Those desirous of obtaining a CD of Jagat Tarkas' whistling tunes of Rafi Sahab may contact him at his email id : jagattarkas@gmail.com. For those who did not get to hear him, let me tell you that he is the best in the business - he can replicate the songs of Rafi Sahab by his adakari.

And I once again quote from my welcome speech of that day: "We have gathered as worshippers of that great personality who has moulded each of our lives in many ways…almost every emotion that we feel can be linked to a song sung by the great master and its a link that we have already forged simply by being his disciples and followers. So today we are simply here as one cohesive group to plainly enjoy, rejoice and bask in the warmth of this friendship between groups of people that transcends all age and religion barriers. " My sincere wish is for this RAFI holiday to be a regular one from now onwards! Bina Murty Saab:

Many thanks for your comments about the event. All of us had this unique sense of belonging to an event, to a group, to a cult. In a normal musical show with live orchestra and people seated in an auditorium, even if it is a show of Rafi Sahab's songs, this kind of atmosphere is not generated. Here we could feel totally at home, it was 'our' programme. We all devised it and executed it the way 'we' had wanted it. This is besides further cementing our bondings like Gurumurthy remarked. The RAFI HOLIDAY will always be a two-day affair and hence we will all accommodate all activities - singing, Antakshri, Quiz and other events truly associated with Rafi Sahab (for instance we would have all also seen the documentary on Rafi Sahab if we still had time for the same). We will also decorate the entire venue with postcards, graffiti of some of the unforgettable songs of Rafi Sahab. The possibilities are endless and the zeal of Rafi Bhakts is unfathomable. If we have some of the finest singers, we also have class kalakars like Jagatbhai. We also can proudly proclaim that we have the best encyclopaedias on hfm amongst us. We also learn from any shortcomings that may have crept in during the first RAFI HOLIDAY and improvements and improvisations are bound to usher in a glorified future for the RAFI BHAKTS. RAFISM is slowly sinking in, (another khwab of Narayanan). Thanks again for being what you all are - some of the smartest fans of Rafi Sahab. Mohan, Ramesh, Devraj, Gurumurthy, Padmaja and Vinatha.
