India are all set to host the Hockey World Cup 2018 at Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneshwar and the teaser of the anthem song of the Men in Blue is finally out. On Sunday, Oscar winning music director AR Rahman tweeted the short glimpse of the song which he sang and composed starring Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. The song is titled as 'Jai Hind India'.
Rahman took to Twitter and post, "Presenting the promo for 'Jai Hind India' the song for Hockey World Cup 2018 with @iamsrk and wonderful musicians who have collaborated for this track. @nupur_mahajan @Naveen_Odisha #HeartBeatsForHockey #AbBasHockey #HWC2018 #BToSProductions #Nayanthara"
The video displays glimpses of rich culture and heritage of Odisha at its best, the 51- year old voice is mesmerizing the patriotic based song.
The Indian Tigers will start their journey against the South Africa team on the opening day of the mega tournament where Rahman will perform with other celebrities at the big stage. Belgium and Canada are the other teams in India pool for the group stage of the tournament.
Team India had a disappointing show at Asian Games 2018 where India lost to Malaysia in the semifinals and later settled for the bronze against arch-rivals Pakistan. It's a perfect time for the hosts to reclaim their glory in the game of Hockey at their own soil. Manpreet Singh will lead the team in the tournament starting from November 26.
