Rajesh Dhabre, Commissioner of Customs & GST (Mumbai) and a distinguished musician, composer and singer, will celebrate the 12th anniversary of his long‑running tribute series “Rooh‑E‑Rafi” with a special performance on December 24, 2025 - the birthday of the legendary Mohammed Rafi. The concert commemorates more than a decade of Dhabre’s devoted homage to the iconic playback singer and coincides with Rafi’s 101st birth anniversary.

An ardent admirer of Mohammed Rafi since childhood, Dhabre has spent the past twelve years presenting Rafi’s repertoire at concerts, cultural gatherings and commemorative events both across India and abroad. Combining the discipline of a senior public servant with the sensitivity of a seasoned artist, he delivers performances that remain faithful to the spirit of the originals while bringing thoughtful arrangements and his own interpretive nuance. Rooh‑E‑Rafi showcases the full breadth of Rafi’s work - from romantic ballads to devotional and patriotic songs - presented with emotional clarity and musical integrity.
