Vishesh : According to many, the Raga Bahaar is a scientifically generated raga that most appropriately brings out the natures beautiful blessings. Renderings with appropriate khatkas and series of beautifully composed intricate patterns of Taans are condusive to its dynamic fleeting nature. The Raga Shahana Kanhada with nyasa on Pancham is nearest to this melodic format.
