Raga Surabhi celebrates this year’s Pongal and Makara Sankranti with this popular composition, Harivarasanam, the song which has been immortalised in the magical voice of the veteran singer, the one and only, Dr. K J Yesudas. We hope you will enjoy listening to our version of this beautiful song too! 

It is a happy coincidence that the song is being released around the same time as Dr. K J Yesudas celebrates his birthday. Raga Surabhi joins all music lovers across the world in wishing this legend a very happy birthday and a great year ahead!
