=History=
'''1945 ''' The song ''Aaj meré jeevan ké nabh'' from '' Amrapali'' has been included on the authority of a scholarly book. The ''Geet Kosh'' has listed eleven songs from the film. None of them has this opening line. But then this otherwise invaluable book has also got the opening words of the songs ''Is duniya ki pagdañdi ''and ''Runak jhunak chapal ''wrong. Could it be that the song ''Aaj apné ghar meiñ lagi aag ré, naujawaãn jaag ré ''was meant? Perhaps, these lines occur at different stages in the same song. (Why did we not simply drop the song from our list? Had we done so we would have gone against one of the basic principles of this series of Indpaedia pages: that once a source has been chosen we have to cite from it unselectively.  We can not bring in our own biases by including some songs and droping others.)
==Two notes about credits==
'''1945 '''  Amrapali ‚‘ The lyricist of at least ‘Runak jhunak’ and ‘Mujh ko nainon ke bandhan se dus gaye re koi pardesi’ is known to be Pradeep (according to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jati9YoqrBo TheDeepakp] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVK3i-mQg_g raagrang786] respectively). Therefore, the other songs listed from this film might also have been written by the Kavi.

‚‘‘1945‘‘‘ Mr Ranade writes  that Ashok Kumar was one of the singers of Duniya né humeiñ do din, rehné nã diyã mil ké from ‚‘Shikari.‘‘  However, Geet Kosh, which has the lowest margin of error, credits Ashok Kumar with two other songs from the film but not this one. And normally we go along with the Geet Kosh. However, here Mr Ranade points to a male singer. Therefore, in this case we have added Ashok Kumar in the credits.

=How these particular songs were chosen =
India’s first—and Hindi-Urdu music’s only durable—hit parade began in 1954. Its creator, Binaca Geet Mala, issued annual lists for 1952 and 1953 as well. However, songs had been introduced in Hindi-Urdu films as early as in 1931, indeed, with India’s first talking film.

Which were the most popular Hindi-Urdu songs between 1931 and 1951? The internationally accepted way of finding out is to go through contemporary as well as later articles to see which songs were mentioned (‘cited’) most often.

Indpaedia’s volunteers spent almost 21 man-months combing through all sources that mentioned songs from the years not covered by Binaca Geet Mala. Around one-third of this time was spent sifting through and analysing fifteen sources that covered the period 1931-53. These included YouTube playlists, three encylopaedias of Hindi-Urdu songs and a scholarly history of Hindi-Urdu film music. Because very few songs were mentioned ‘often,’ the volunteers noted down ''every '' song that was mentioned ''at all.''  Less than half a dozen songs were omitted because they did not exist either on Saregama’s website, the ''Geet Kosh,''  YouTube or Hindi Geet Mala. Every song was cross-checked with at least one of these sites.

For more details please see [[Hindi-Urdu songs: methodology]].

Annual lists for the years 1931-51 have been arranged in the alphabetical order, because no one knows the order of their popularity. '''However, this can be done. ''' 

The Indpaedia community will be grateful if some volunteer(s) check out on YouTube the songs mentioned on this page and rank them according to the number of times each song has been played. (Most, but not all, of these songs are on YouTube.) This contribution will be gratefully acknowledged in the volunteer’s name.
=Raags in songs=
Few film songs that have a root in Indian classical music remain faithful to a raag throughout their length. Indpaedia volunteers have sometimes mentioned raags even when there is merely a hint of that raag in a song. (‘Raag’ is frequently spelt ‘raga,’ while ‘taal’ is also spelt ‘tal.’)

Wherever a taal has been mentioned, it is the one verified by [http://chandrakantha.com/raga_raag/film_song_raga/   ChandraKantha.com], and sometimes the raags, too.

==For lists of popular songs==
If the song that you are looking for has not been listed under one particular year, please look up the next year’s charts as well. This is especially true of Binaca/ Cibaca’s annual charts, which would put songs released in the last months of a year in the following year’s charts.
