Hi Thumburu,
I haven't heard this song much earlier. So I heard this after seeing your post.
It is indeed confusing. It does sound like Kalayanavasantham but as you said, it doesnt seem to be Kalayanavasantham. Illayaraja seems to have used many rare ragas like Varunapriya etc. This could be one of them.
It will be great if someone can clarify about this raga.

Vel,
It carries the improvisations / gamakam of rag chandrakouns.
It always remind me of kandena govindana... purandhara dasar keerthanai. Bombay Jayashree sings very well this kutti keerthanai.

you may be right there baroque - chandrakouns

What a GREAT Raaja Pattu!

thumburu/suresh
the notes are s r3 g3 m1 (p) d1 n3 s
if seen as chandrakouns, it is chandrakouns with an accidental g3
-
does chandrakauns have a R3 & G3? It thought it goes like S G2 M1 D1 N3 S/S N3 D1 M1 G2 S.
-
G3, Ni3... etc.. Don't know, Srini!
follow the keerthanai.. there is another keerthanai by Sudha Raghunathan... to learn the improvisations.

I initially suspected Vaagadheeswari but later realized its certainly not that.....I am so obsessed with this raga these days that I try to map each and every song to it
Like Vel said, the notes for 'Karayatha' are S R3 G3 M1 D1 N3 S.
Now, the 33rd Mela GangeyaBhushani, goes like S R3 G3 M1 P D1 N3 S/ S N3 D1 P M1 G3 R3 S.
So, 'Karayatha' should be Gangeyabhushani without 'Pa'. I am sure this is a Janya raga of G.Bhushani but could nt find the name of it.
Any comments?

So "karaiyadha" seems to be set in some rare scale. I I have not heard any song in "Gangeyabhushani" . Could you point me to any popular Krithi or any film song in this raga so that I can understand its feel better?
