We are sure that this year's World Cup has been far more exciting and enticing than ever before for reasons more than one. Every Indian has been praying for a repeat of the Indian team's Cup winning performance of the year 1983. Every Indian has been doing their bit, in order to boost the morale and the team spirit of the team.
One such gentleman is Nishanth Kollu, a young IT professional, based across the seven seas of USA. In order to exhibit his love for the game of cricket, he hit upon an inspirational song called 'Balle Mataram', which has been sung by the talented Sukhwinder Singh, while the lyrics have been penned by the ace lyricist Sameer. Speaking exclusively to Bollywood Hungama, Sukhwinder Singh said, "The best part of the album is that the lyrics that have been penned by Sameer as a tribute to the game of not just cricket, but any game for that matter. It has what would one call as the 'True Sportsmanship'. Luckily, the composition has been so open hearted as it exhibits the true smell of the Indian soil. The engineer of the song was also so very surprised when I sang the song. The USP of this song is that we recorded this song in an open space in Karjat. The organizer of the song (Nishanth) is what one would call as a true fan of the game. And 'Balle Mataram' is something that can be called as an 'apt tribute' for the game."
When we spoke to Nishanth Kollu, he said, "It's only my love and passion for cricket that made me come up with 'Balle Mataram'. You can call me a cricket 'fanatic', because there is the word called 'fan' in it. And I am out to prove that there can't be a fan bigger than me, when it comes to cricket. And 'Balle Mataram' is my tribute to the game. The entire album will simply sound meaningless if I do not mention the 'souls' of the album, besides Sukhwinder Singh and Sameer, and they are my parents, the album's music composer Uday Shankar and Yaman Chhaya, the guy who is single handedly responsible for the orchestration." Talking about the album, lyricist Sameer was all praise for Nishanth. He said, "Nishanth has been marvelously endowed with talent and has come up with a clear winner in terms of this track. This song will surely provide him a very good platform for displaying his talent to the whole world."
With inspirational songs like 'Balle Mataram', one really hopes that India repeats 1983's history with this World Cup too! Men In Blue... hope you are listening.
