BOLLYWOOD MEETS RAGAS!

    We bring you this week two popular Bollywood numbers by famous composer
duo Shankar-Jaikishan - Jaane Kahan Gaye Woh Din (Mera Naam Joker) and O
Mere Sanam, O Mere Sanam
(Sangam).

Both songs are composed in raga Shivranjani, a Shankar-Jaikishan favorite.

You may wonder why the two songs composed in the same raga sound so
different. 

​Well, that is because a raga is NOT a tune- it is simply a structure of
ascending and descending notes (aarohi and avrohi). Within that structure, the
composer is at liberty to improvise and devise different tunes.
