We will now take up Male-Female Duets Song of male singers other than Mukesh and Mohammad Rafi. Individually, none of these singers have duet songs that may compare with the numbers of Mukesh or Mohammad Rafi. But collectively, these duets present a rainbow of many shades of music directors and combinations of male and female playback singers of vintage and the coning-golden-years era.
The first stage selection of such songs from HFGK has yielded a bountiful numbers that would very respectfully measure up to the numbers of duets that have been rendered by both Mukesh and Mohammad Rafi put together. Many of the songs do not have internet soft link till now. But th eons that I could find would certainly provide a tremendous mix of the vintage era style of orchestration and singing justaposed with golden era style orchestration and singing.

The world is too small? or Is it? 
All the songs were great. But what is striking is that a tornado (named Lata Mangeshkar) had not yet broken loose on Indian music scene !
If we look at the solo songs of female singers for 1948, it can be quite distinctively be observed that Lata Mangeshakr tornado is building up in the horizon in this year.
Naushad has not yet switched over to Lata. But Khmechand Prakash and Anil Biswas have created a fairly strong base where upon Lata Mangeshkar would build her monolithic empire.
It is 1949 that provided the requisite escape velocity to her skyrocketing career.
