Raag Malhar, is an ancient raga with many variations, one variation known as Miyan Ki Malhar or Tansen Ki Malhar, was popularized by Sangeet Samrat Tansen. Malhar is a Hindustani classical raga. Malhar is associated with torrential rains.
Besides the basic Shuddha Malhar, which was the original Malhar, several Malhar variations or related ragas use the Malhar signature phrase S (m)R (m)R P, including Miyan ki Malhar, Megh Malhar, Ramdasi Malhar, Gaud Malhar, Sur Malhar, Nat Malhar, Dhulia Malhar and Meera ki Malhar. The Malhar Family is based on this signature phrase, where many such other ragas are created and are categorized under this family. This phrase, although it might seem similar and equivalent, is different from the swara phraseology employed in Raga Brindavani Sarang.
