This changes the whole feel of the raga, making Sahana a beautiful raga to listen to.

'''Arohana''', '''''' or '''''', in the context of [[Indian classical music]], is the ascending [[Musical scale|scale]] of notes in a [[raga]].<ref name="ragas">''Ragas in Carnatic music'' by Dr. S. Bhagyalekshmy, ''Glossary'' pages, Pub. 1990, CBH Publications</ref> The pitch increases as we go up from Shadja (Sa) to the Taar Shadja (Sa), possibly in a crooked (vakra) manner.

==Scale==
In [[Hindustani classical music]], the ascending scale's notes are S R G M P D and N. Lower forms of notes are written in lower case, like r g m d n (S and P are fixed notes), while the first scale given above is that of higher form of the notes. The English notes C D E F G A and B correspond to S R G M P D and N, when C is taken as the tonal note (S is sung at C).

In [[Carnatic music]], the ascending scale's notes for the variant notes R G M D and N have a subscript number indicating the specific variant (see examples below).

==Examples==

In [[Multani (raga)|Multani]], the aroha is 'N S g M P N S' (lowercase notes are the lower forms, while uppercase notes are the higher forms, and an apostrophe preceding or following a note denotes the lower or higher octave – see [[swara]]).

In [[Dheerasankarabharanam|Sankarabharanam]] raaga (29th [[Melakarta]] in 72 parent ragam scheme of [[Carnatic music]]) the Arohana is ''S R2 G3 M1 P D2 N3 S''.<ref name="ragas" /> See [[Swara#Swaras in Carnatic music|swaras in Carnatic music]] for explanation of notation.

In [[Abhogi]] [[raga]]m, which is a [[janya]] raaga of 22nd melakarta [[Kharaharapriya]], the Arohana is ''S R2 G2 M1 D2 S''.<ref name="ragas" /> In this raaga certain notes are excluded so the raga is totally changed.
