Todi (raga)
Miyan ki Todi, often simply referred to as Todi or Darbari Todi (), is a Hindustani classical raga which gave its name to the Todi (thaat), Todi thaat, one of the ten types of classical music according to the musicologist Bhatkhande. Ragas from the Todi raganga (class of ragas) include Todi (a.k.a. Miyan ki Todi) itself, Bilaskhani Todi, Gujari Todi (also called Gurjari Todi), Desi (raga), Desi Todi, Hussaini Todi, Asavari Todi (more commonly known as Komal Rishabh Asavari), and Bahaduri Todi. The equivalent raga in Carnatic music is Shubhapantuvarali. But in Todi, the pancham is omitted in the Arohana, whereas Shubhapanthuvarali uses the panchamam in both the arohana and avarohana. The Carnatic Melakarta Hanumatodi is the equivalent of Bhairavi (thaat), Bhairavi thaat, but the Hindustani Bhairavi (Hindustani), Bhairavi raga is the equivalent of Carnatic Sindhu Bhairavi (raga), Sindhu Bhairavi.

The ''rāga'' is a unique and central feature of the classical Indian music tradition, and as a result has no direct translation to concepts in classical European music.
