Raga Information:

This raga is from the Carnatic system of music having its scale share the same scale as the Purvi That. The only difference is that Namo Narayani (“Obeisances to Laksmi”) has a komal ni which has a lighter feel that its relative Purvi That. This is why one who is used to listening to Puriya Dhanasri will not be able to digest a komal ni which further disrupts the Ga-Ni harmony Puriya Dhanasri has.
