About this Raga

Pahadi (A raaga of hill people) uses both the Nishads but the usage of Nishads overall is too less. This sometimes stimulates multiple echoes which is observed in many songs. This raaga is observed in many hindi songs and is sung mostly in lower and middle octaves. Lot of the songs are sung in Mishra Pahadi where it is decorated by komal Ga, Komal Ni, Tivra Ma.
