Raga-Based Hindi Film Song Reference

Postby Sreenivas » Sat May 07, 2011 9:20 pm

I found this reference when I was searching the web for a film song based on the raga Sindhura/Saindhavi. The material at this site is remarkable!

Thought I should pass it on to others... http://www.indiapicks.com/SNT_Hindi/Raga_Index.htm

It turns out, the same person has also written a large compendium of raga-based Telugu Film songs too. It is in the Telugu-script though... http://www.indiapicks.com/SNT_Telugu/P-1.htm

Yes , that´s one of the best sites I´ve seen .
The only trouble is that one can not copy and paste the descriptions , which are very exhaustive .

That site has mistakes, e.g. it claims the song "Ja Tose Naahi Bolun Kanhaiya" is in Shahana, when it's clearly Hansadhwani. It also makes allegations (e.g. claiming that Tansen remained a Hindu after marrying Mehrunissa) without providing sources.
