This morning, after switching off FM announcing nonstop traffic/ storm at 7.30 AM, I randomly picked up a CD from Baba’s collection and heard a rendition of nonconventional Malhar by Pt. Jasraj, beginning with Ramdasi Malhar.
Just perfect for the season. A celebration of the skies.
 I can hear rain lashing the tarpaulin with fierce intent.
There is music in its beat.

Do you have a link you could post to hear a sample of what you were listening to? I tried to look up what you wrote but do not think there is enough information to find a link.

PT this is a different raga, the original one so to speak, the one I've mentioned here is a variant. this raga celebrates the rain.

They say playing certain music or raaga triggers rain too right

There is music everywhere - nonsense I know, but true as well.
