Singer: Mohammed Rafi, Suman Kalyanpur

Music: Khayyam

Recording: original

Reported raag

Pahadi

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.

Evidence: Named musician's analysis · Rajan Parrikar, Hindustani raag articles, Short Takes: Bhoopali and Deshkar — https://www.parrikar.org/hindustani/bhoopali/ — Raga Pahadi; paragraph opening: “Composer Khayyam has made a career in Pahadi, successfully exploiting its pliancy”

Source wording: “Composer Khayyam has made a career in Pahadi, successfully exploiting its pliancy and its yen for promiscuity. From SHAGUN (1964), the dulcet tones of Suman Kalyanpur and Mohammad Rafi: parbaton ke pedon par.”
