Day 39: Abheri

Continuing the trend of picking a raag, here are some songs in Abheri.

Instrumental:
1) Abheri by L. Shankar. First and foremost, listen to this. He won a Grammy for this composition. He's playing a double violin, and it's incredible (no idea how he's playing at 1:36 so fast). If you like it, look up the full 40 minute version, it's great.

Hindi (some of these may be Bhimpalasi, which is really close to Abheri):
1) Manmohini Morey - Yuvvraj. An underrated song from this aggressively mediocre movie, this song is interesting because the ascending scale is North Indian/Hindustani and the descending scale is South Indian/Carnatic.

2) Tere Sadke Balam - Amar. Classic Dilip Kumar song from the 50's.

3) Kismat Se Tum - Pukar.

Tamil:
1) Kannodu Kanbathellam - Jeans. A hilarious story involving a computer projection of a second Aishwarya Rai, intended to convince a pair of male twins that there are two of her.

2) Anbe Anbe - Jeans. Another great song from this movie.

1) Neevena Nannu - Maya Bazaar. Very famous movie from long ago, here is one of the songs.
