Filmi qawwali (Urdu: فلمی قوٌالی‎ Hindi: फ़िल्मी क़व्वाली) is a form of qawwali music found in the Lollywood and Bollywood film industries. It represents a distinct sub-genre of film music although it usually bears little resemblance to traditional qawwali which is the devotional music of the Sufis. One example of filmi qawwali is the song Pardah Hai Pardah sung by Mohammed Rafi and composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
