There was a request for Hindusthani and Carnatic classical
raga equivalence. Here is what I collected from the net.
Sorry, if you already have it.
Thanks,

    Here is my list of  approximately  equivalent  ragas  in  the
Carnatic  and  Hindusthani  traditions.  There  are  a  number of
Carnatic ragas that do not have  a  Hindusthani  equivalent;  the
reverse  is  also  true  (especially of many ragas in the Bilawal
That).

    Ragas considered different in the Hindusthani tradition often
map  onto  the  same raga in Carnatic music. Bhoopali and Deshkar
are both equivalent to Mohanam. To me  (with  a  ear  attuned  to
Carnatic    prayogas)   there   seems   no   difference   between
Bhoopali/Deshkar and Mohanam. However, the subtle emphasis (nyasa
prayogas) for Bhoopali and Deshkar are quite different and should
not be confused when performing in the Hindusthani style.

    I am not too sure of many of the  Hindusthani  ragas  in  the
list;  I  would  be happy if someone could verify the accuracy of
the equivalents. I have not included many of  the  ragas  in  the
Todi  That  --  almost  all of them map into derivatives of Subha
panthuvarali or Bhavapriya (except  Bhoopal  Todi  which  is  the
exact  equivalent  of Bhoopalam). Also not included are the ragas
in the Darbari and the Kanhra groups almost all of which map into
Kanada/Madhyamavathi/Sri  or  some combinations of these ragas in
the arohana and avarohana.

    The list is quite obviously incomplete. Any additions  to  it
are most welcome. I would also advise people not to take the list
too seriously since very very few ragas (mostly those which  have
been  borrowed  from  one  system of music into the other) can be
considered to have reasonable equivalents. Most of the  items  in
the list simply indicate similarities.
