“Darshan” (1941) was directed by Chimanlal Luhar. The movie had Prem Adib, Jyoti, Bhudo Advani etc in it.

Two songs from this movie have been discussed in the past. Here is the third song from this movie. This song is sung by Sheetal Ghosh. From the name of the singer, I expected to listen to a sweet female voice. But I found myself listening to a masculine voice instead. 🙂
