Sri ragam and P D N P M phrase

Post by HarishankarK »

Is it correct that pre dominantly in most compositions in Sri ragam the P D N P M phrase comes only once?
I heard this in some lec dem that even Dikshitar has employed this phrase only once in all his krithis.

However today while looking at Sri raga varnam I saw that P D N P M phrase is coming in two places in the anupallavi and also in the last chittaswaram

What is correct? Does P D N P M phrase come repeatedly in kruthis Y or N?

Thanks

Varnams may be exempt.
