Oops, Jamal – that’s not the right answer

Remember this question from Slumdog Millionaire?
“Who wrote song Darshan Do Ghanshyam Nath Mori Ankhiya Pyasi?”
Jamal thinks about his traumatised past, back to when he escapes being blinded and having to sing the song, and promptly says
“Surdas.”
…and becomes, eventually, the slumdog millionaire.
Except that that answer is wrong. So, in fact, are the four choices given to Jamal:
a) Surdas, b)Tulsidas, c)Meerabai and d)Kabir.
Ladies and gentlemen, Darshan Do Ghanshyam Nath Mori Ankhiya Pyasi is from the 1957 film Narsi Bhagat, based on the life of 15th Century Gujarati saint-poet called NARSINH MEHTA.
