Dada asked Dev to let R. Burman take over; Dev agreed that Pancham was good, but said that Guide would go with S.D. Burman only and will be released with just one song if SD could not complete it.
SD and Rafi together perfected the art of playback singing in that memorable song from Pyaasa, Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaye to kya hai, and they proved again in Kagaaz ke Phool (Dekhi zamane ke yaari) that it was only they who were destined to scale, if not surpass, those lofty heights.
The younger Burman, who reportedly composed Sar jo zara takraye for his dad in Pyaasa and played the tabla in Hum bekhudi mein tumko pukare chale gaye, never developed a strong liking for Rafi, even after that singer had launched him into the big league with Teesri Manzil.
