Superstar Shah Rukh Khan is going the whole hog to promote his IPL team, Kolkata Knight Riders.
Just a few days back, the King Khan released the theme song of the team composed by Vishal-Shekhar. Now, SRK has roped in Bappi Lahiri to compose three songs for his team.
Of the three numbers, Bappi Lahiri will sing only one track. The second track will be sung by Usha Uthup and the third by a Bengali band called Bhoomi. All the songs will be in Hindi. Only one track by Bhoomi will have some Bengali words.
Reportedly, SRK wants all the compositions to be powerful and motivating.
Bappi Lahiri, who is a self-confessed fan of SRK, will record the songs next week. He says there might be a few surprises for listeners as he is cajoling SRK to sing a few lines in songs.
On the other hand, Preity Zinta and beau Ness Wadia are also coming up with a rocking Punjabi track for their Mohali team.
Business tycoon Vijay Mallya, too, has roped in Sanjay Gupta to direct an ad and a music video for his Bangalore team.
Less than a month remains for the IPL tournament to begin. And every franchise wants to promote its team best. SRK has the head-start so far.
