Mohammed Rafi, who has delivered innumerable hit songs like "Kya hua tera wada", "Baharon phool barsao", "Likhe jo khat tujhe" and "Chura liya hai tumne jo dil ko", died in 1980. The late singer had worked with producer Yash Johar -- Karan Johar's father -- in the 1980 film "Dostana" for which he sang "Mere dost qissa yeh kya ho gaya" and "Salamat rahe dostana". ADHM: After Bachchans got UPSET with him, Ranbir REACTS to his ‘mauke pe chauka maar diya’ statement on INTIMATE scenes with Aishwarya! Meanwhile, the film -- which also features Ranbir Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Fawad Khan -- is doing well at the box-office. IANS
