• Purvi — Double harmonic minor variant — ♭2 ♯4 ♭6, rich augmented intervals. Profound, twilight, endings.
• Shree — Purvi with emphasis on ♭2 — very serious and devotional. Devotional, solemn (Sunset).
• Gauri — Purvi scale, gentler execution — less chromatic movement. Serene, feminine.
• Paraj — Purvi with some Marwa phrases — hybrid at sunset. Twilight, melancholic.
