This dhun is performed with Mishra Bhairavi raga. In any mishra (mix) raag, used in light and semi-classical settings to enrichen the music and make it more playful, there is the main raag built up and skillfully mixed with other raag or notes without breaking the main raaga mood.

This Bhairavi Dhun piece is composed by Mahesh Pathmakumara to convey a mood of kindness and calm. It has been inspired by the music of Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan Saheb.
