What is worse, even the options given with the interview ‘’Name the Indian sonneteer who wrote the metrical composition 'Darshan do ghanshyam nath mori akhiyan pyasi re'’’ do not embody the reason option. ‘’The comeback to this picky give is given as Surdas which has been declared as a right respond in the film.

The motto of pointing out this fluff is only to ensure that anything watched all over the everyone should be informed with the right and the rectify answer,’’ Shrivastava underlined.
