KANNAN VANDHAAN - RAMU

Nand is a raga which sporadically uses prathi madhyamam in the scale of shankarabharanam. 'Ma' is the difference between kalyani and shankarabharanam - scale wise, note scale wise. Simply put, it sounds like a combination of yaman and maand. It is pronounced as 'Nandh'  and not as 'naand' and it also has another name 'anandhi kalyan'.
