The 83 most popular/ significant Hindi-Urdu songs of 1957

A note on pronunciation

How was the song Brindavan ka Krishna Kanhaiyya pronounced in the film Miss Mary ? Prof. Anil Bhargava uses the classical spelling Vrindavan, while Indpaedia would use the classical pronunciation Krishn. However, in the song itself, the pronunciations Brindavan and Krishn-uh have been used.

The next rung

The Geetmala ki Chhaon Mein CDs list 31 songs that were ‘in the shade’ (chhaoñ songs) this year. Prof Bhargava has compiled a list of 16 runners-up. The two lists have nine songs in common. Thus, between the two, there are 38 unique songs in the ‘next rung.’

GC: Geetmala ki Chhaon Mein is a set of 50 CDs issued by Saregama in instalments that continued into 2012-13. The set concentrated on songs that had ‘remained in the shadow’ (chhaoñ) of the main annual list of Binaca and its successor Geet Malas. These, thus, were the ‘next rung’ of songs, which were popular but did not make it to the main annual list.

AB: Bhargava, Anil, Binaca Geetmala ka Sureela Safar (Hindi; 2007; Rs.1,200), Vangmaya Prakashan, Jaipur-302015. vangmaya_jpr@yahoo.com)

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 ChandraKantha.com, and sometimes the raags, too.
