   Related Ragas of Ramapriya


Ramapriya's notes when shifted using Graha bhedam, yields no other melakarta ragam, as such a step taken on any of the 6 swarams (Ri to Ni) comes up with scales that do not conform to the melakarta rules. Graha bhedam is the step taken in keeping the relative note frequencies same, while shifting the shadjam to the next note in the ragam.
