Bhupal Todi or Bhoopal Todi is a Hindustani classical raga. This raga is quite different from Bhopali (or Bhoop). The Carnatic music equivalent of Bhupal Todi musical scale is Bhupalam.[1]

Theory[edit]

Arohana and Avarohana[edit]

The scale of Bhupal Todi uses only komal swaras. It is a symmetric scale.

Vadi and samavadi[edit]

Organization and relationships[edit]

Thaat: Bhairavi. Note: the raga Bhopal Todi is Todi-Ang raga. So it is suggested that one must assume this raga from "Thaat Todi". It may be more appropriate.

This scale is sung in the morning.[1]
