Reported raag

Khamaj

Not yet reviewed by a musician

A named writer on music analysed the song in this raag. This records what the source says; a musician has not checked the recording note by note.

Source wording: “To justify this claim, I will now explore another film ṭhumrī sung by Manna Dey in the film Buddha Mil Gaya (1971) directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee, with music composed in rāga Khamāj by R D Burman.”
