Pakistani singer Ali Zafar announced on Sunday that he is going to make an anthem for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023 amid public criticism over the official anthem titled ‘Dil Jashn Bole’ released by the International Cricket Council (ICC) last week.
Ali Zafar announced the creation of an anthem on his official account on the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter).
“Hello all, firstly thank you for the love and faith. Keeping in mind your thoughts and wishes for the World Cup cricket anthem, I have an idea on how we can create a masterpiece together. Check out the link below. It’s an exciting experiment that can work wonders if done right. It’s also a chance for new music composers, writers, and producers to showcase their talent in the most democratic way possible. But here’s the best part: creativity knows no bounds, so anyone can share their ideas! So, hear me out and let me know your thoughts. If you have something to share, please provide a link or video. Peace and love,” he posted.
