Revathi


Revathi is the first raga that I learnt on my small keyboard 10 years ago. Here is the arohanam and avarohanam:

Indian Notation:
Arohanam: S R1 M1 P N2 S
Avarohanam: S N2 P M1 R1 S

Western notations:
Ascending: C C# F G A# C
Descending: C A# G F C# C


This is not used much in films may be due to the classical / devotional flavor. The first film song I knew in Revathi is the "Ye Mera India" from the film "Pardes". It is a very good composition in Revathi. It suits the patriotic flavor too very well.

Other film songs in Revathi include:
  • Sangeetha Jaathi Mullai (1st half)
  • Mandhira Punnagai from Manal Kayiru
  • Some portions of Vizhigal Medaiyaam... Julie I love you from a Mohan film, Kilinjalgal
  • And the more recent title song from "Naan Avan Illai"
Some of the classical numbers I know in Revathi are "Bho Shambo" and "Janani Janani Janani".
