An hour of Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi duets!

Noreen Khan celebrates Lata Mangeshkar's 90th birthday. This hour is all about the magic created when Lata Mangeshkar pairs up with Mohammed Rafi.

Noreen Khan celebrates the 90th birthday of one of the world's most prolific singers - Lata Mangeshkar. 

With a career spanning over 7 decades, Lata-ji has over 30,000 songs to her name with credits on over 1200 soundtracks.

In this hour, Noreen plays all those classic hits which were created when Lata-ji sang with the late, great Mohammed Rafi.

Despite a three-year fall-out where both stopped working with each other, Mohd Rafi was the person she recorded the most duets with, with the pair notching up over 400 tracks together. Noreen will be playing some of their best songs together including Chup Gaye Sare Nazare , Yunhi Tum Mujhse Pyar Karti Ho and Mujhe Choo Rahi Hai. 

Noreen will also be hearing from the lady herself as well as from those who've been touched and inspired by her talent.
