'''Anandabhairavi''' or '''Ananda Bhairavi''' (pronounced ānandabhairavi) is a very old melodious [[rāga]]m (musical scale) of [[Carnatic music]] (South Indian classical music). This rāgam also used in Indian traditional and regional musics. ''Ānandam'' (Sanskrit) means happiness and the rāgam brings a happy mood to the listener.

It is a ''[[janya]]'' rāgam (derived scale) of the 20th ''[[Melakarta]]'' rāgam ''[[Natabhairavi]]''

==Structure and Lakshana==
[[File:Natabhairavi scale.svg|thumb|right|300px|Parent scale ''Natabhairavi'' with ''shadjam'' at C]]
Its {{IAST|ārohaṇa-avarohaṇa}} structure is as follows (see [[Swara#Svaras in Carnatic music|swaras in Carnatic music]] for details on the notations used):
*[[Arohana|{{IAST|ārohaṇa}}]] : {{svaraC|S|G2|R2|G2|M1|P|D2|P|S'|foot=yes}}
*[[Avarohana|{{IAST|avarohaṇa}}]] : {{svaraC|S'|N2|D2|P|M1|G2|R2|S|foot=yes}}
[[File:AnandaBhairavi.wav|thumb|Arohanam Avarohanam for Ananda Bhairavi]]
(''chathusruthi rishabham, sadharana gandharam, shuddha madhyamam, Chatusruthi dhaivatham, kaishiki nishadham'')

It is a [[sampoorna raga|''sampoorna'' rāgam]] – rāgam having all 7 ''[[swara]]ms'', but it is not a ''melakarta'' rāgam, as it has {{transliteration|sa|vakra prayogam}} (zig-zag notes in scale) and uses {{transliteration|sa|anya swaram}} (external note) in comparison with its parent rāgam. The ''anya swaram'' is the usage of ''shuddha dhaivatham'' ''(D1)'' in some phrases of the rāgam.<ref name="ragas">''Ragas in Carnatic music'' by Dr. S. Bhagyalekshmy, Pub. 1990, CBH Publications</ref>
''Anandabhairavi'' ragam is also a {{transliteration|sa|bhashanga}} rāgam, since it uses more than one ''anya swaram''. ''Anya swaram'' of a rāgam is the ''[[swara]]m'' which does not belong to the ''arohana'' or ''avarohana'' of its ''melakarta'' (parent rāgam), but it is sung in {{transliteration|sa|prayogams}} (phrases used in {{transliteration|sa|raga [[alapana]]}}, ''[[kalpanaswaram]]s''). It is also classified as a "rakti" raga(a raga of high melodic content).

==Swara phrases==
The three {{transliteration|sa|anya swarams}} of {{transliteration|sa|Anandabhairavi}} are {{transliteration|sa|antara gandharam}} (G3), {{transliteration|sa|suddha dhaivatam}} (D1) and kakali nishadham (N3).<ref name="ragas" /> All of these ''anya swaras'' occur only in {{transliteration|sa|prayogas}} (not in {{transliteration|sa|arohana avarohana}}). "G3" occurs in "ma pa ma ga ga ma", and "D1" occurs in "ga ma pa da". Subtler than the first two, "N3" occurs in "sa da ni sa."

It is said that [[Tyagaraja]] and [[Muthuswami Dikshitar]] do not use any of the {{transliteration|sa|anya swarams}} in their compositions.{{ciation needed|date=June 2020}}

''Anandabhairavi'' also has unique ''swara'' patterns both in ''manodharma'' (impromptu improvisations by performer) and in its compositions. The popular patterns are ''"sa ga ga ma"'', ''"sa pa"'', and ''"sa ga ma pa"''. The musician isn't allowed to stay long on ''nishadam'', this characteristic distinguishes it from ''[[Reetigowla]].'' Few allied ragas (similar) to this are ''Reetigowla'' and ''Huseni''.

==Popular compositions==
''Anandabhairavi'' is one of the favourite ragams of [[Syama Sastri]]. He is said to have made this a popular rāgam and also to have given the present form for this rāgam.<ref name="ragas" /> More or less ''Anandabhairavi's'' synonym is "Marivere gati" by Syama Sastri. In "Mariverae" and in "O jagadhamba" Syama Sastri uses the ''anya swara'' "ga(2)".A very life changing incident is said to have happened in [[Thyagaraja]]'s life. Once he is said to have attended a Kuchipudi bhagavata artists dance-drama recital,a ballad between mythological characters [[Radha]] and [[Krishna]], and he is said to have highly praised their performance, especially a particular song [[Mathura Nagarilo]], which was again set in ''Ananda Bhairavi''. [[Thyagaraja]] wanting to acknowledge them offered to give them a gift, of anything that they may desire, that he could possibly give. After much thought they demanded him the [[Ragam]] [[Ananda Bhairavi]] itself as a gift ( meaning that he would accept to never sing in that [[ragam]] ever again in his life),so that when someone in the near future spoke of [[Thyagaraja]] or [[Ananda Bhairavi]]'s legacy they would also remember the Kuchipudi dancers too.
