dear arijit, what u call as a six beat structure is when the tempo is slow.By combining 3+3 beats in a single structure u get 6 beat structure.Also rupaka taala is a 6 beat taal which is expanded as follows: 1 dhritam 1 laghu and 1 dritam has 2 beats and 1 laghu has 4 beats which sum up to 6. usually a beat structure different from an 8 beat structure is expressed as n/8 where n is the number of beats in the song.so ekla chalo coming to ur lines may be called a 6/8 beat song which is nothing but 3/4.As far as the des ki mitti is concerned its a 7 beat song or 7/8,which is exactly what ive said in my prev msg. the 8th beat is but a reference used for expressing other beats.I guess u should read the messages properly before commenting(no offence here dude).And i may still be wrong but please double check for my sake and do tell me if i am.thank u for ur feedback
