Rajesh Khanna, The Super Star
Rajesh Khanna was dubbed as the first Super Star of the Hindi screen. In a reign of five years, from 1969 to 1973, he made a hit after hit that was unprecedented in the Hindi cinema history.

With Kishore as his choice singer, the combination of Kishore-Rajesh-RD created some of the best songs of that period. In this album, papa SD sings for his son RD. Kishore has three beautiful solos. One of my alltime favorites is the song "Chingari Koi Bhadke". There is so much soul, so much pathos, so much agony and pain as penned by the late great Anand Bakshi, and sung with such a passion by Kishore. Now for details of the songs and the songs themselves ... Attached image(s) ![]() ![]() |
