Myth / Story
Pt. Kumar Gandharva created this Raag & Bandish on the spot of a concert on 13th Feb. 1965 in Mumbai where he didn’t get appropriate hospitality from the organizers. So, in this Bandish, he complains, ‘How strange is your policy as you have invited me, but how come you ignore me! Please let me know my mistake for this ill-treatment.’
