Comments – True to Bolliwood style, this song shows a fair amount of mixing. This piece does not really feel like Basant Mukhari. It feels like a Bhairav with an occasional use of Komal Nishad. Although we are classifying it here as Basant Mukhari, there is a definite lack of commitment to this on our part.
