Maestro - Ilayaraja - Aakhir Bhairavi





The songs above are set to the Raaga 'Aakhir Bhairavi' !

I never knew about this until my mom mentioned this today.

Looks like 'Mano' the male singer in the movie song, mentioned this in the Super Singer (Vijay TV) program recently !

Maestro Ilayaraja - What a composer !

Madurai MarikoLundhu is based on raaga Mayamalava Gowla.

yes, like anonymous said, I strongly dispute the claim that the "madurae marikozhunthu" song is in Ahir Bhairavi...

if you want 100% pure ahir bhairavi , listen to "ullathil nalla ullam" from karnan.....

there were kombans before ilaiyaraja.....make no qualms about it...

ganesh

Vidukathaiya intha Vazhkai from Muthu is also an Ahir Bhairavi example. correct me if im wrong.

I have to agree with laks that the Raaga of the song Vidukathiya intha Vazhkai is Ahir Bhairavi.

Please listen to the carnatic song 'Pibare Rama Rasam' in Ahir Bhairavi - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y31L-jDTBLQ
