Raga Bhairav (Hindi: भैरव/भैरों) (Urdu: بَھیرَو ‎) (Sindhiبھےرو ) is an Indian classical heptatonic (Sampurna) raga of Bhairav Thaat. Traditionally it is a morning raga. It is usually performed as the beginning piece in concerts. It is the defining raga of its own Thaat.


Raga Kalingda in Hindustani and Ragam Mayamalavagowla in Carnatic music have the same scale as Raga Bhairav, although the moods they create can be quite different due to the way they are expounded.
