PSL 8: Shae Gill, Asim Azhar, Faris Shafi to feature in official anthem |
|
KARACHI: Young musician Abdullah Siddiqui has composed this year's Pakistan Super League (PSL) official anthem, sources informed GeoSuper.tv Tuesday.
For a second consecutive year, Siddiqui will be making the PSL anthem as last year he, alongside Atif Aslam and Aima Baig, composed PSL 7 anthem named "Agay Dekh". As confirmed by the PSL on its official account, Asim Azhar and Shae Gill will sing this year's anthem. The sources told GeoSuper.tv that the third singer is Faris Shafi who will give a rap touch to the song. Previously, Ali Sethi, son of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Management Committee's head Najam Sethi, was roped in to sing PSL 8 song. The makers of Pasoori were set to make this year's anthem. But, Najam, a two-time former PCB chairman, decided to revoke the contract involving his son to avoid a conflict of interest. "I’m disappointed that Ali won’t be able to sing the anthem. Ali is also upset about this," Najam shared in a press conference last month. "We will bring in Ali Sethi for the anthem when I’m not here. You need to understand my position. I don’t want to be involved in any controversy over conflict of interest," he had said. Ali and Shae sang Pasoori in Coke Studio season 14 which gained massive popularity worldwide. Under former PCB chairman Ramiz Raja, the Pasoori team was hired to produce the anthem.
