. "Charanam (meaning foot) in Carnatic music (South Indian classical music) is usually the end section of a composition which is sung after the anupallavi. There may be multiple charanams in a composition which make up different stanzas, but in compositions that do not have an anupallavi, there often exists a samrashti charanam that combines both the anupallavi and charanam of the composition which directly follows the pallavi. The charana swaras are grouped in four different ways: \n* 1st - one tala cycle. \n* 2nd - one tala cycle. \n* 3rd - two long tala cycles \n* 4th - four long tala cycles"@en . . . . . . .
