Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, who has had an excellent
cricketing career, bid an adieu to the gentleman's game in November 2013
rendering us all saddened.
But, the God is back and this time as a singer. Tendulkar
collaborated with first-rate singer Sonu Nigam for a song based on cricket. The
track by the name 'Cricket Wali Beat' was premiered on the grand finale of a TV
reality show.
The lyrics of the song is quite quirky and captured the true
madness of the game. For instance, the lyrics tells,"Gend aayi, bala ghuma,
mara chaka, Sachin, Sachin… nacho nacho sab cricket wali beat pe."
Funny isn't it?
Lauding Sachin's singing skills, Sonu told, "I am glad
to be part of Sachin's new innings. The song that he has sung with me is called
'Cricket Wali Beat'. I was very surprised to see the way he was pitching right.
That's why I believe that when God blesses someone with genius, it spills in
other faculties too."
He further added, "He is a very good singer. We did not
use pitch corrector on his voice as he was singing in the right sur (tone)
and (despite being) the shy person that he is, he got extremely comfortable the
moment I kind of increased the masti (fun) quotient while we were
shooting the video. It was wonderful and I am very happy that people are loving
the song."
Sonu was all admirations for the legend as he called Sachin
a phenomenon not just in India but for the world as well. "When he is
given the title of god, it's not just by chance. His whole demeanor, whole
career, entire reputation and the spotless career that he has had, is the
reason why he is called the God of cricket," Sonu declared.
