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.
