Kolkata: India’s quest for contributing the theme song of a FIFA World Cup is all set to get fulfilled as Bollywood’s one of the best music directors Pritam Chakraborty to compose the theme song of the forthcoming U17 FIFA World Cup. Bollywood’s “most wanted” lyricist at present, Amitabh Bhattacharya, who presented some special songs of late, in the recent movies like Dangal, Raees, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Dilwale, Kahaani 2 and Ae Dil Hain Mushkil, will be writing the song for Pritam. Reliable sources confirmed www.xtratime.in that all the top singers of Bollywood will playback the song in Pritam’s music.

It is learnt that a few days back, The AIFF President Praful Patel spoke to singer Babul Supriyo, who is the Honourable Minister of State for Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, in the Government of India and also the Vice-President of the FIFA U17 World Cup organizing committee to help him in preparing the theme song.

Babul gave the proposal to Pritam and Amitabh and they responded immediately to work on this illusive project. They will also produce a music video to promote the theme song across the globe. No doubt, a mouth-watering composition is on its way for all the sports and music lovers of the country.
