New Delhi: In a musical stampede of sorts ahead of the Commonwealth Games, another theme song was launched on Tuesday, this time for the volunteer programme in an effort to "connect" with the masses.
Titled 'Delhi United In Spirit... In Action', Commonwealth Games Organising Committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi launched the audio CD of the song and conceded that there were "too many" theme songs for the October 3-14 event.
"Many a times, I have been asked that there would be how many more theme songs. Beside the official CWG song, there was recently a song on (the mascot) Shera," Kalmadi said.
"I am very happy the way the song has come up. The song is fantastic and hope it will serve the purpose," he said.
"This song has been composed to pump in some energy among the masses and with a local feel. We want everybody to be associated with it," Bhalla told said.
'Delhi United' is composed by a seven-member team with assistance from Dr Bhalla and and Manjushree Roy, deputy director General Broadcasting and Games media operations head, and coordinators Ashish Puniany and Roma Ghosh.
Maestro A R Rahman's 'Jiyo Utho Badho Jiyo' is the official CWG theme song, while a Shera song has recently been launched by Sports Minister MS Gill.
