Comments – It can be a little bit confusing, because this song has been tacked onto a different song. The film appends “Madhura Madhura Sangeet” onto “Tut Gayi Meri Man Ki Bina”. “Tut Gayi…” is a melodic kichidi that may have flashes of Bageshri present, but does not warrant inclusion into this list of rag based film songs.

Through most of “Madhura Madhura Sangeet”, it is a very typical Bageshri. However, there is a section toward the end where it goes off rag.

Comments – Performing a pure Bageshri, or any pure rag, is not going to happen with Ghulam Ali. But in this recording, he stays pretty close.
