Amid much eagerness and hype, PSL8 becomes the talk of the town as the extravaganza affair is all over the mainstream media and social sites.
Let it be known that the anthem of Pakistan Super League season 7 was also leaked on social media last year before the official release.
Earlier this week, a tweet shared by the official handle of PSL confirmed that the anthem for this year’s league would be performed by Asim Azhar, Pasoori’s famed Shae Gill, rap king Faras Shafi.
The response to the singers’ names is mixed with social media expressing hope while many remained clueless, remembering the previous year’s shocks when top celebrities including Shoaib Akhtar raised questions on the much-touted anthem.
