Harikambhoji or Khamaaj reflects devotion, beauty and opulence of love. It will make you very pleasant and happy. Harikambhoji has a lot of nice janya ragas of which mohanam is the most famous. Harikambhoji is very close to Charukesi and Shankarabharanam but the one note difference changes the feel all together. Its a raga that people of all ages could easily appreciate unlike heavy ragas like charukesi.
