Sharing always has its joy with like-minded music lovers. While composing for a film, the music directors tend to take a few steps while adopting the janya raga to match the situation/ singer/ lyricist's special requirements.
Ragam--Devagandhari
Devagandhari is a janya raga whose parent scale, is Shankarabharanam, 29th in the 72 Melakarta raga system. This is not to be confused with Karnataka Devagandhari, which is a janya f Kharaharapriya similar to Abheri.
The closest raga to this one is Arabhi. Both share the same ascending and descending scale, in terms of basic notation. But, some of the things that make Arabhi different from this raga are -- Devagandhari is sung with gamakas and vilambita kala prayogas (usages with elongated notes) Many Tyagaraja Keertanas are based on this Devagandhara Raga.
