udhay...should we continue this as a conversation between suraj, pavithra
and me or can it be on the list?

In keeping with the spirit of the original post, I'd like to (attempt to) follow conversations about musical traditions of which I'm currently ignorant. *

... the kind of high pitch that you hear female vocalists in film music
doing....THAT goes through my head.

As a niekulturny, I can't tell the difference between bollywood music and the (presumably turkish?) pop songs that get played at the kebab shop. What should the neophyte listen for, to distinguish the two? (and, that having been achieved, what are the relations between film, hindustani, and carnatic music?)

* oddly enough, francophones will call someone who is ignorant a "con" or a "nul" -- but never an "aux" or a "prn"
