Vishesh : It is a flittering light melody which sounds natural
but is rendered with much difficulty. No Bada-Khayals or serious artistic
thesis is composed in this format of naturally exhilerating music forms
i.e. Bandish, Dhun, Songs. Mostly light entertainment types dominate the
compositions. Bhajans and Gazals are aptly compositionally lyricised in
this melodic format. The basic skeletal format belongs to the folk tune
of Mewar (Rajasthan) and is called Mand which is the song
of festive occasions, birthdays, marriages etc.
Illustrative combinations that are best rendered with Khatkas &
Murkiyan are
