other name: Kalavati.

Kalawati is derived from a Carnatic raga (see also Yagapriya). According to J.D. Patki the raga was popularized in Maharashtra by Pandit Rao Nagarkar, Roshan Ara Begum and Gangubai Hangal. B.Subba Rao explains the Carnatic Kalawati as omitting Ga and Ni in aroha and Ni in Avaroha, using komal Re. That would make it closer to Raga Jansamohini.
