Seventh prahar — night · 00:00–03:00
Shivranjani
शिवरंजनी
A pentatonic late-night raga on the Kafi thaat's komal Ga — Bhoopali's frame with the third flattened, turning calm into ache. Its codification is comparatively recent (it flowered in twentieth-century light-classical and film music), so time and vadi attributions are conventional rather than ancient — vadi/samvadi are left unstated here.

Dosha effect
Vata ±0 · Pitta -1 · Kapha ±0(−2 pacifies · +2 aggravates)
Pentatonic karuna raga of deep night — the ache of komal Ga against shuddha Re and Dha releases the heart without agitating the system.
On Moon: Its aching komal Ga in a moonlit pentatonic frame is Chandra's melancholy.
