Chinta Kamodi (Odia: ଚିନ୍ତା କାମୋଦୀ, romanized: chintā kāmodi) is a rāga belonging to the tradition of Odissi music.[1][2][3] Falling under the meḷa Sri,[4] the raga uses both suddha nisada and komala nisada swaras and is traditionally associated with the bhakti rasa.[5] Occasionally, the komala gandhara is employed in a bakra prayoga.
An ancient raga, Chinta Kamodi is accepted as one of the primary melas in Odissi music due to its prominence. It has been used by hundreds of poet-composers for well-over the past many centuries.[6] Its bakra or devious aroha-abaroha are given below:
