Indian pop music (Template:Lang-hi), often known as Indian-Pop, Hindi Pop, Indipop or Indi-pop, refers to pop music in India. Pop music really started in the South Asian region with the playback singer Ahmed Rushdi's song ‘Ko Ko Korina’ in 1966 and has since then been adopted in Bangladesh, India and lately Nepal as a pioneering influence in their respective pop cultures. Following Rushdi's success, Christian bands specialising in jazz started performing at various night clubs and hotel lobbies in Karachi, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Dhaka and Lahore. They would usually sing either famous American jazz hits or cover Rushdi's songs. The term refers to non-soundtrack music in contrast to filmi music i.e soundtrack music, the latter of which almost completely dominates Indian music.
Origins
The term Indipop was first used by the British-Indian fusion band Monsoon in their 1981 EP release on Steve Coe's Indipop Records. Pop music began gaining popularity across the Indian subcontinent with Pakistani singers Nazia Hassan and Zohaib, forming a sibling duo whose records, produced by the Indian Biddu, sold as many as 60 million copies.
Popularity
The private television launch in India in 1992 gave major boost to Indi-pop music. The musicians got a platform to release their music videos. The launch of MTV India and Channel V in late 1990s gave huge push to India-pop music. It was this time when the music reached its greatest heights. The popular trend of remix albums also started in this perios albeit it was short-lived.
Decline
In late 2000s, Indi-pop music faced increasing competition from filmi music. Major pop singer stopped releasing albums and started singing for movies. The last notable Indi-pop album was Himesh Reshammiya's Aap Ka Suroor released in 2006. Indi pop music severely declined by end of 2000s, being almost completely overtaken by filmi music.
Since 2010s, non soundtrack music in India is mostly dominated by classical and folk music.
