Abhi Na Jao Chhod Kar - Cover by Raghu Kedar & Vidya

Abhi Na Jao Chhod Kar - Cov... Lyrics & Chords

Friends, its HUM DONO time! This Classic Dev Anand-Sadhana starrer was recently re-released in a colorized version. What better way for me to salute my star idols than posting this evergreen duet?

Let me introduce Vidya, my singing partner in this venture. She is a talented singer in her own rights and I am happy we collaborated. I recently introduced her to Muziboo and you are likely to see her in full flow in the near future. In fact, she has already posted our maiden duet in her space. You are welcome to take a listen to that one too and comment!

ADDED on 03-15-2011:
Due to a strange sequence of events, my friend Madhukar Mehta got mistakenly added as the Collaborator, instead of Vidya. The muziboo staff is working on rectifying this error.

Re-released in Color: January 2011
Original Singers: Mohammad Rafi & Asha Bhosale

Hmmm……. not an easy song…… Beautifully attempted by both of You!!! Did I feel wrong that the k-track tempo was a little too fast?
By the way, I do have this duet on pending too…… since so incredibly looooong! :) Naturally, to favs!

Raghu and vidya …great song pick.

Raghu you were fantastic …and nicely supported by Vidya…a little more modulations and adda would have taken this rendition to a different level.

Thanks Adina, for the apprecition!

It sometimes happens with me too. When I hear a song after a long time, I tend to feel that the tempo is faster. That’s because, when you casually hum a song, you tend to do hum it at a slower tempo!

One more of your special selections:)
Terrific attempt! Both have done very well and made this one very enjoyable.
Vidya: agree with Harshan bro above to some extent. I am aware how tough is the Ashaji’s original rendition and you have done a great attempt.
Keep it up!

Thanks, Adwait.
Harshan’s comment could have been directed at one of us or both.
Actually, its a matter of debate how a cover song should be approached. Attempt a 100% copy-cat job or add some originality at the expense of being told that you did not manage to reproduce the original. Not an easy one to answer.

This is not as easy as it sounds…You both have sung really well… Maintained the mood of the song throughout… Loved the expressions…

Good job Raghu and Vidya….

Awesome singing, my abs fav duet song! Lovely to hear this in your voices, Raghu and Vidya. You did tons of justice to this – thoda aur smiles aur adaayegi would have added to the charm of this song…
Raghu – so sorry to have missed your singing for this long… You are awesome.

Harish said

@Raghu ji, you have sung this song brilliantly getting all the technical things right. i felt it missed that ‘nasheela romantic feel’ that Rafi saab managed to bring in this song.

@Vidya, I have sang this song many times, and it is difficult for a female singer to match the pitch, and from that POV, you have done very well!

Thanks Harish, from the pitch POV. Any indicators regarding other nuances of the song?
