Mehamanan se ka lariye

Mehamanan se ka lariye is a khayal performance in the Hindustani classical tradition recorded by vocalist Sanjeev Abhyankar. The track serves as the opening piece on his 2012 album Vocal Classical, released under the label Neelam Audio and Video, Inc. in compact disc format. The composition spans 29 minutes and 45 seconds, showcasing an extended alap-jor-jhala progression followed by a vilambit and drut bandish in a traditional raga structure.

Abhyankar renders the piece in a style rooted in the Mewati gharana, emphasizing intricate taan patterns and bol-banao techniques. The recording captures live accompaniment, though specific instrumentalists remain uncredited in available sources. The album focuses on solo vocal performances without overt studio enhancements, aligning with classical concert conventions.

The 2012 release forms part of Abhyankar’s discography under Neelam Audio and Video, a label specializing in Indian classical and devotional music. No additional metadata confirms the raga or tala framework for this track, nor does the original context specify lyrical content or poetic attribution. The album’s production details, including recording location and engineering credits, are not publicly documented.

Abhyankar’s interpretation reflects his training under Pandit Jasraj, integrating the gharana’s signature gamak taans and sargam elaborations. The track’s duration permits extensive raga exploration, a hallmark of his concert repertoire during the early 2010s. Commercial distribution of the CD targeted classical music audiences in India and the diaspora, with limited digital reissues noted in subsequent years.
