Is it rag Darbari ?

Please listen to this Sai Bhajan which was sung during a bhajanotsavam. The raga of this song sounds like "darbari"of HM (please correct me if I am wrong). The foreign note thivra Daivath used while pronouncing the word "sai" after the lyric ' Brahmandanayaka', adds beauty to the song. Actually this tivra daivath note is a part of CM rag Kanada.

Can some rasika post details of the correct raga of this song, if not it is darbari/darbari kanada?

Whatever may be the views on the raga, the bhajan song is very touching and highly appealing. Hence, please enjoy this song and get blessed by Guruji Sai Maharaj

While playing this song on the Harmonium, the notes and sancharas more suit to rag " Bhagae Sri Kannada"(22nd mela) which has the Arohanam: SGMDNS and Avarohana: SNDNPMGMRS. I may be wrong and view are most welcome.

Hey syama sundara... superb sai bhajan... influenced by song by Ilayaraja.. Kalyana thenila.. song by Yesu... (or vice versa).
