Binaca Geetmala annual list 1976

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following is an annual list of the year-end chart toppers of the Radio Ceylon radio show Binaca Geetmala for 1976. Binaca Geetmala was a very popular radio show that counted down the popular film songs from Indian cinema on a weekly basis, listened to by millions of Hindi music lovers, just like US Billboard Countdown Top 100 list of songs. It ran in various incarnations from 1952 to 1993. Annual lists of the most popular songs were played at year end. The list was compiled on the basis sales of records in India.[1]

It was the most popular radio program before Satellite television took over in India. The lines are the starting lyrics of Hindi songs, transcribed phonetically into English. Unless you know Hindi and are interested in Indian music, these words are actually meaningless to native English speakers. As a culture, many educated Indians listen to Hindi songs, but use computers to type in English! So, these lists make perfect sense to a musically inclined educated Indian knowing both English and Hindi.
