Now we’re into the serious money. For two hundred and fifty thousand rupees, ladies and gentlemen, a quarter of a million rupees...
The song "Darshan Do Ghanshyam" was written by which famous Indian poet? Was it A) Surdas. B) Tulsidas. C) Mira Bai. D) Kabir. Remember you still have two lifelines- fifty-fifty and Phone A Friend. Tempted to use one? -- And the correct Answer is: E) None of these. -- Yes. The film is facing yet another controversy, a genuine one this time. The song was not written by any of the above four legendary poets suggested in the answers. It was not a historical or legendary song at all. It was just a film song. (sorry for appearing to indicate as if film song are in lesser vain. No, they are not. but I hope you get the idea). It was written for the Goel Cine Corporation's 1957 film "Narsi Bhagat", composed by MD Ravi, rendered by singers Hemant Kumar, Manna Dey and Sudha Malhotra And the poet is ----->>>>> Gopal Singh Nepali. So, please give back all the cheques you had been given so far, and go back to your home. You have lost. Next contestant please. (The film ends here.) -- ha ha ha. What an oops!, what a slip, what a mistake. Very Interesting. It will remain a rare faux pas on Indian Silver Screen that would be quoted for ever. The way those who have scene Devanand, Nanda starrer Hum Dono might recall that in the song Allah Tero naam, Ishwar tero naam, at one place, Lata ji voice follows another pattern whereas the face of the screen (Nanda?) that was supposed to be singing this song, her lips were following a different pattern altogether. Anyway. Local newspaper reports that film makers have agreed that this was a mistake. btw, I checked the draft script link posted in this list today and found that it was not a mistake of the original author, or the script writer. That draft doesn't mention the song "Darshan Do Ghanshyam". On page 33, that question is about some song "Chalo Ri Murali". (I have removed all references of the film name so that oscar voters don't find this mail of mine highlighting the error. :-) Of course, they would find it elsewhere.)
