Yes, it is. The correct name is suraTi. Dikshitar has incorporated it this way in this krithi 'shri vAnCanAtham' - 'bhUsuraTikAdIDitabhAvam'

Thanks. There is this samashti carana kriti by Dikshitar in suraTi,Lalitha Parameswari.
What is the melakartha ragam for which surati is a janyam?

Uday,
In some cases, also wraps up the concert, and makes room for the jamakkALakkArar to 'roll up' (SuruTTi--fy) the spread...

Not to further prolong this topic, but "suraTi" also means a fan, I think in Telugu.

Though there are several kritis in surutti(surati), being a film buff ,especially film songs of yore, the surutti line that comes to my mind is by NCVASANTAKOKILAM. from the film Sivakavi, a ragamalika duet by her and MK Thyagaraja Bhagavathar.. the song starts in Raaga Vasantha in the majestic incomparable voice of MKT. The song is vasanta ruthu mana mohaname, a garland of raagas, the line I mentioned earlier by NCV is 'surutti konarndu koduthar pola sollukku panjamillai'. I forget the other raagas.. i remember kambodi only .Arasi or cm lover , help me GOBILALITHA

Yen meethu kurai onrumillai, rasikarkale.
Yedhukithanai sorvu?
Nan kettadhellam suratiyin peyarum athan melakartha ragamum than.
nammidaye vishaya parimartam nadandhu kodirukkirathu.
ithu rasikkavittal Mudhithuviduvom intha tahlaipinai.

The ragas are vasantA, kuntalavarALi, yadukulakAmbhOji and suraTi.
By the way the femal voice is that of S.Jeyalakshmi.
