Answer:

The kanjira, khanjira, khanjiri or ganjira, a South Indian frame drum, is an instrument of the tambourine family. As a folk and bhajan instrument, it has been used in India for many centuries. It was modified to a frame drum with a single pair of jingles by Manpoondia Pillai[1] in the 1880s, who is credited with bringing the instrument to the classical stage.[2][3] It is used primarily in concerts of Carnatic music (South Indian classical music) as a supporting instrument for the mridangam.

Bhajan refers to any devotional song with religious theme or spiritual ideas, specifically among Indian religions, in any of the languages from the Indian subcontinent.[1] The term bhajanam (Sanskrit: भजनम्) means reverence and originates from the root word bhaj (Sanskrit: भजति), means to revere, as in "bhaja govindam". The term "bhajana" also means sharing.
