Dhun

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the film, see Dhun (film).

A dhun (Hindi: धुन; literally "tune") is a light instrumental piece in the Hindustani classical music of North India. Although it may be played in a raga, or mode (often light ragas such as Khamaj), it is more freely interpreted and may incorporate foreign notes (vivadi).

A dhun may be based on a folk tune or a religious, bhajan-type song, or even a filmi song.
