Brindavani and Brindavana Saranga Are Same?

I thought the two raagas are different, I have recently come to know that there is some debate over whether they are or not! Wanted to share with you some discussion I found interesting on this topic

Here is a snippet from a thread on line …

“Padma:
Brindavani is different from Brindavanasaranga.
There are two arohana/avarohanas for the former and four for the latter. There is also another Brindavanasaranaga in a different mela. Here are the details.
1. Brindavani (mela 22) – S R M P N S; N P M R S (Subbrama Dikshitar)
2. S R M P N S; S N P M R G R S (Balamuralikrishna)
3. Brindavanasaranga (22)- S G R M P N S; S N P M R G S (Nadamuni Panditar)
4. S R M P N S; S N P M R M R G S (R.R.Keshavamurti)
5. S R M P N S; S N P M R G S (P.Sambamurti)
6. S R M P N S; S N P M G S (Mahadevan)
7. Brindavanasaranga (mela 65)S R M P N S; S N P M R S (Palayazhi)”
