Multani is a popular afternoon raga. It draws from Todi thaat, ascending pentatonically with SgMPNS and descending heptatonically with SNdPMgrS. Sa, Pa, and Ni are the melodic focal points, with mandra [low octave] Ni often being used to start phrases. Pa and Sa are the vadi and samvadi [king and queen notes], and Dha and Re should be used very sparingly in the descent.
Sitarist-scholar Deepak Raja describes his response to the raga’s subtly-coloured descent: “I associate this raga, in a very personal way, with the oppressive afternoon heat of May in the Indo-Gangetic plains. The very special treatment of the Re and Dh tones in this raga suggest to me the virtual wilting of the body and the mind under the remorseless tyranny of the North Indian summer.” Raag Madhuvanti is considered to be a descendent of Multani.
