Fourth prahar — afternoon · 15:00–18:00
Multani
मुलतानी
The definitive fourth-prahar raga of the Todi thaat — komal Re and Dha touched only in descent, tivra Ma blazing at its centre. Austere and inward, it carries the heat of late afternoon turning toward evening.

The great raga of the hot late afternoon — komal Re and Dha withheld until the descent give it a contained intensity that cools the day's accumulated pitta.
