Hum Bewafa Hargeez Na The

Singer : Kishore Kumar
Lyricist : Anand Bakshi
Music by : R D Burman
Film : Shalimar (1978)
Raag : Khamaj

Flute used for notations : G#

Following notations are easy to play on flute and other instruments.
If I trust my ears, then this song seems to be based on Raag Khamaj. Why do I say so? While I’m not too sure about this song, but I’m pretty sure about “Ye Kya Hua, Kaise Hua..” song which is based on Khamaj Raag. Now when you sing both the songs back to back, you may carefully notice that there are traces of the tune of “Ye Kya hua…” song in “Hum Bewafa…” song. Hence, I concluded, although skeptically, that this song might also be based on Raag Khamaj.
