"Rmim"-Jhim Geeton Ki (RJGK)


Rmim-Jhim ke taraane leke aaee barsaat
Yaad aaee kisise woh pehli mulaquaat...




K.L. Saigal, Pankaj Mullick, Mohammed Rafi, Mukesh, Hemant Kumar and Kishore Kumar

"Rmim"-Jhim Geeton Ki or RJGK is a quiz in which the clues are lines (may not be complete) from somewhere in the middle of a song, and all you have to is guess the song. Eg: For the clue "Logon ko aatay hain do nazar hum magar dekho to nahin...", the correct answer would be "Ye dosti hum nahin chhoRengay...." from Sholay.

The first RJGK was posted on RMIM by Sami Mohammed on July 4, 1993. Since then, many more quizzes have been conducted on the net by various RMIMers. The second quiz in the series was conducted by Angela Singh. Abhay Avachat, who compiled RJGK 3 had the great idea that each RJGK be set to a certain theme and dedicated it to Mohammed Rafi. Since then, each RJGK has been set to a particular theme. The list of the first 32 RJGKs is given below along with the name of the RMIMer(s) who compiled the quiz. The rest of the quizzes can be accessed through Satish Subramanian's RMIM page. A likn is provided at the end of the list below.
