  1. Ragam Kalyani follows the Arohanam: S R2 G3 M2 P D2 N3 Ṡ and Avarohanam: Ṡ N3 D2 P M2 G3 R2 S. It is a melakarta raga with a bright, grand and expressive feel. The presence of Prati Madhyamam (M2) distinguishes it from similar ragas like Shankarabharanam. Kalyani is widely used in compositions, expressing devotion and majesty, making it a significant raga in Carnatic music.
