X sang two songs for a movie Y whose music director was Z.
These songs were based on two Ragas namely A & B.
The music director Z used his voice as C's voice in the movie.
X was reluctant to sing for any movies and therefore reportedly charged 50 times the price that other popular singers were commanding at that time just to dissuade the music director Z.
Identify X,Y,Z & A,B,C?

Answer:
X-Bade Ghulam Ali Khan Y-Mughal-e-Azham Z-Naushad A/B -Sohni & Rageshree C-Tansen Khan was reluctant to sing for films, but sang two songs based on ragas Sohni and Rageshree for the 1960 film Mughal-e-Azam, in which his voice was represented as Tansen's by the music director Naushad. In an attempt to dissuade Naushad by asking an obnoxiously high price, he reportedly ended up charging Rs. 25,000/- per song when the going rate for popular playback singers such as Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi was below Rs. 500/- per song.
