Rafi Saab ne akele gaaya

Mohammed Zahur Khayyam Hashmi was better known as Khayyam.

But at the beginning of the composer’s career, he adopted the pseudonym Sharmaji, which was one half of the music director jodi, the other being Varmaji (a.k.a. Rahman Varma).

One of the films for which Khayyam composed the music as Sharmaji was Biwi, which released in 1950.

The only song from the film in my collection was Akele Mein Woh Ghabrate Toh Honge.

It was written by Wali Saheb.

In congruence with the first word in its title, it was a solo – Mohammed Rafi sang it.
