Maybe this doesn't count as Indian music... I remember getting up and being about to head out the theater after the end of the movie, but then just stopping in my tracks, listening to it to the end once I heard it start playing. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/YtIiKYVbzmI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> There's a version out there without the totalitarian backdrop to it if you're looking for a "purer" version.

This is a weird thread for a Houston Rockets forum but I'll play. There's been a recent surge in updating old folk songs in terms of today's music. A lot of it is rock based as the popular keys used in this type of music corresponds to some Indian music "keys". The songs I'm posting are similar to each other but that's only a reflection of my taste at the moment. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/jnV9q1hOOGg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> ^About a poor agrarian couple who don't meet the harvest demand by their landlord, so they head to the forest and sustaining on whatever they gather, they're at least together.
