KARACHI: According to sources who spoke to on Tuesday, the Pakistan Super League’s (PSL) official hymn was written by young singer Abdullah Siddiqui.
Siddiqui will create the PSL anthem for the second year in a row after creating “Agay Dekh,” the anthem for PSL 7 with Atif Aslam and Aima Baig.
Asim Azhar and Shae Gill will perform this year’s anthem, as the PSL announced on its official Twitter account. According to the sources, Faris Shafi will be the third performer and will give the song a rap flavour.
Before, the PSL 8 song was performed by Ali Sethi, son of the chairman of the PCB Management Committee, Najam Sethi. The creators of Pasoori were slated to compose the anthem for this year. However, in order to avoid a conflict of interest, Najam, a two-time former PCB chairman, opted to invalidate the contract involving his son.
“That Ali won’t be able to perform the national anthem makes me sad. This has hurt Ali as well “Last month, Najam revealed during a press conference.
“When I’m not here, Ali Sethi will perform the national anthem. You must get where I’m coming from. I don’t want to get engaged in any conflict of interest disputes, “He had spoken.
