Original post
Sub: Film Songs based on Classical Ragas.
Here is the list of songs and the name of the Ragas they are
composed in. Music directors always keep in mind both Pandita
and Pamaras in music and try to make the song more "Janaranjakam."
Sa, Re, Ga, Ma, Pa, Da, Ne, Sa - - - Sa, Ne, Da, Pa, Ma, Ga, Re, Sa
The above seven notes are the basis for the music. By singing
each note in high, low pitch and using 7 or only 6 or only 5 notes
in Arohana and Avarohana, (permutations and combinations),
the Ragas are derived !
Over a period of time, even lay persons who are not exposed to
any training in classical music would be able to recognise,
identify the ragas or atleast find out that two particular songs
are based on the same Raga.
Film songs are "based" on classical ragas and cannot comply with
the Raga structure 100%. They deviate from the laid down
Raga Structure and can always attract a debate.
Songs which are based on more than one raga are called "Ragamalika"
(Each stanza will be in a different raga - Example: "Manasa Veena
Madhu Geetam" from the movie "Pantulamma".
Myself, Srinivas, Ram,Lucky and Sriram worked behind this project.
Several hours of effort has gone into making this list.
Srinivas Paruchuri spent many man hours and transcribed
the whole list into RIT for the benefit of netters.
Srinivas acted as the bridge between all four of us communicating
back and forth the doubts, questions etc.
Ramanna Vishnubhotla and Lakshmanna Vishnubhotla who are both
singers as well as musicians have contributed a lot in
correcting the mistakes and by providing additions to the list.
Sriram Pidaparti too has helped in sending additions and corrections.
Hope you would enjoy the songs and Wish that you too can recognise
and identify the raga on which the song is based.
Suggestions & Corrections are welcome.
I request other netters to post on the net if they know the
Ragas in which the songs are based so that we can keep updating
the list.
Thanks and Regards
