Raga Bhatiyar, an early morning melody ,was presented in the form of Jugalbandi, between the two great stalwarts of Hindustani Classical Music,Ustad Ameer Khan (Vocal) and Ustad Bismillah Khan(Shehnai)in a Hindi movie GOONJ UTHI SHEHNAI(1959).
Ulhas playing as the Sangeetacharya
This beautiful jugalbandi was picturised on a 'Sangeet Guru'(played by Ulhas),who is singing in a temple before the statues of his deity Shri Radha and Krishna,in the early hours of the dawn and a boy who is exactly repeating his singing on Shehnai,sitting beside a pillar,somewhere in the temple complex.When his Shehnai playing is noticed by Guru Ji , he himself comes to the boy and praises for his efforts .Music director of the film Vasant Desai selected this Raga Bhatiyar, as most appropriate for this sequence in the film and left everything on these two Ustads.
This raagmala was picturised on a household scene, in an early morning in Hindi film BAWARCHI.The singers are:Manna Dey,Nirmala Devi,Lakshmi Shankar,Kishore Kumar,Harindranath Chatterji and one more unidentified singer.Lyrics are written by Kaifi Azmi in which some part of Harindranath's English poem is also included.The whole presentation is very pleasing. It begins with raga Alhaiyya Bilawal and then ragas Maru Bihag ,Nat Bhairavi ,Dhaani(Dhanashree) ,Hansadhwani are used by music director Madan Mohan.The complete lyrics of this raagmala are as follows:

This immortal classical comedy song is actually a raagmala of four ragas: KHAMMAJ , BIHAAG , DES AND CHHAYA NAT in a sequence.Though music direction is given by Rahul Dev Burman, but once he himself disclosed that, this whole song was composed by Kishore Kumar.The befitting lyrics were written by Rajinder Krishan, which is as follows: Yak chatur naar kar ke singaar Mere man ke dwar ye ghusat jaat Hum marat jaat, arey he he he Yak chatur naar kar ke singaar.

This is an unique raagmalika composed by music director Ravindra Jain in which he has used various ragas in a sequence.These are: Kaafi,Bilawal,Kaafi,Bhairavi,Yaman Kalyan,Khammaj,Aasawari,Bahaar,Sohini,Darbari,Megh and Kaafi.The lyrics explaining the construction of various ragas when 'Shadaj' is replaced by another swar,is very interesting and this is written by Ravindra Jain himself.Because no lyricist or poet could write this typical song based fully on the grammer of the ragas of Indian Classical Music.The film is unreleased therefore we do not know on whome this raagmalika is picturised.But as I feel this must be on Tansen himself.
Tansen's Samadhi,Gwalior(M.P.)
The lyrics of this raagmala is as follows:
Shadaj ne paya yeh vardan,
shadaj ne paya yeh vardan.
Koi bhi swar sa thahra kar,
gaa lo chatur sujaan...
shadaj ne paya yeh vardan,.......
Sa se ni tak shuddha swaron mein,
hota raag BILAWAL,ga ma re ga pa..
Re ko sa samjho to KAAFI,
ga ni jis mein komal,ni dha pa ma ga re..
Ga ko sa mano to BHAIRAVI ki hoti pehchan,
Shadaj ne paya yeh vardan,....
Aa aa..madhyam ko sa maan chalo to,
YAMAN KALYAN kahaye,ma dha re ni dha ni ma..
Shuddha swaron mein tivra madhyam
kaisi shobha paye,pancham sa ho jaye to aaye,
pa yadi sa ho jaye to aaye raag KHAMMAJ ka dhyan.
Shadaj ne paya yeh vardan...
Sa re pa pa dha re ga....
AASAWARI suhawani bhayee,dha sa dha sa re ga re ni,
gandhar dhaiwat nishad teeno hi komal,
meetha madhur swabhav chalan ke chanchal,
sun sun kar na bhare man pyasa dha sa bana jab dha sa,
sa re ga ma pa dha ni sa.
Ni ni ni..jab ni sa bani,do do madhyam par nahi pancham,
pancham ko tarse abhagini,ni ni....
bin ni ke neeki na BAHAAR.
Kahin komal kahin shuddha ye bankar, karti raagon ka shingar.
Saat swaron mein sabse oopar,
baithi mathey ki bindiya bankar,
suno gunijan phiki ni bin, Tansen ki taan,
shadaj ne paya yeh vardan..
O de ta na ne deem ta da na deem.....
O de ta na na deem ta da na deem....
Suye mana ke tera yaare wafadar manum,
Chakhda na da ke tera yaare kharidar manum.
O de ta na na deem ta na na deem.....
Bol taal sur gum huye,har sunane wala jhoom uthey,
bol par bol,taan par taan,sargam par sargam,
chha jaaye bus ek masti hi masti ka aalam.
Aise mein agar koi naar kiye singaar,
liye tan man mein ek jhankaar,
naachna chahe baarambaar,magar baithi ho man ko maar,
to gayak kare dhoom,daud uthey ragon mein khoon,
bhool aadab,tod kanoon,bhare darbaar kare tatkaar,
bhare darbaar kare tatkaar..aa..aa..aa..aa..
