I am a big fan of Woody Allen's films. More than 20 years ago, I was watching one of his films that was a musical. Everybody was singing and dancing. In one scene a guy is singing a song in a  cab with a Sikh taxi driver. Suddenly the Sikh starts singing a Hindi song, in a voice similar to that of Rafi. I immediately went to the end credits to discover that  it was the RMIMer Sanjeev Ramabhadran singing!

To day I want to highlight a very special and unique group on Facebook. It is called THOSE WHO COULD NOT MAKE IT BIG BUT IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE WITHOUT THEM. These guys are world experts in identifying the background dancers in group song and various party-goers, wedding attendants, jury members etc, They must have made hundreds of them known to the world. Hats off to them. Here is an example

Shinde, Chinu and Basant in Tarzan Comes to Delhi (1965). Of course, you already know about Shinde if you read my book on Edwina Violette!

Now you know!
