She has a rich repertoire of ragas and compositions, further enriched by her presentation of traditional folk songs of the Malwa region, which reflect the local culture and heritage. The Sagun and Nirgun bhajans (devotional songs) she presents—are compositions of various saint-poets—which bring an ascetic and spiritual flavor to her music. She also mentioned that Kalapini’s commercial studio recordings include albums such as ‘Aarambha’ and ‘Inheritance’ (released by HMV), and ‘Dharohar’ (released by Times Music).
