(film Parakh), and its Bengali counterpart Naa Jeo Na (film Naa Jeo Na), is composed by Salil Chaudhury
Both songs are composed in raga Khammaj.
SIA is fortunate to be collaborating on “Bollywood Meets Ragas” with the eminent
classical vocalist Padma Shri Pandit Madhup Mudgal, Principal of the renowned
Gandharva Mahavidyalya, Delhi. Here is what Madhupji’s student Harini Kapoor has to say about Raga Khammaj and bollywood songs.
Raga Khammaj is a late-night melodic structure with six notes (sa-ga-ma-pa-dha-ni-Sa) in ascent (aarohi) and all seven (Sa komal- ni-dha-pa-ma-ga-re-sa) in descent
(avarohi). The raga allows intelligently breaking these rules and is therefore often
heard in thumris, horis, dadras, taranas, and of course, in Bollywood numbers!
