"Whatever It Takes"
Since its release, the official video has gathered 26,697 views on YouTube. The track saw a quick rise in popularity, which supports the idea- the fans found it appealing.
The main aim of the song is to aware and energize the fans about the tournament. It resonates with the spirit of the game. It also reflects the hard work necessary to compete at the finest stage of the game.
However, it's all on time, for it to become an anthem or just a theme song, for the fans.
W.I.S.H- World Inka Stage Hey
Launched and supported by New Zealand-based composer Mickey McCleary, the aim of the brand was to bridge the gap between Bollywood and Indie music. McCleary has worked on multiple Bollywood projects as well.
The World Cup theme song featured four members of the band. They are Ri (Riya Duggal), Sim (Simran Duggal), Zo (Zoe Siddharth) and Suchi (Suchitra Shirk). Riya is the eldest of the Duggal sisters and is the leader of the band too.
Not only that, the Duggal sisters performed as "Simetri", and ranked in the top 24 in the national hunt for English language artists.
W.I.S.H. is a clever name. In Hindi, this means poison. But the name expands to World Inka Stage hey.
