Cricketers, B-Town celebs come together in Unlock India song

Mohali, June 11

To infuse positivity among industrialists and people at large not only in Mohali, but also in other parts of Punjab, Chandigarh, Haryana and the rest of India, Karan Gilhotra, a tricity-based entrepreneur, who is also the chairman of the PHDCCI (Punjab chapter) has produced a four-minute music video, ‘Be Strong’, dedicated to the theme of “Let’s Unlock India Together”.

A Mohali-based multinational, Bigrox Media, is supporting the endeavour under its corporate social responsibility (CSR) programme.

Vikram Vijay Chopra has directed Gilhotra’s music video, while Punjabi singer and lyricist Jasbir Jassi has given the music.

Sanjeev Anand has penned the soong, while Jassi has also lent his voice for it.

The icing on the cake is appearance of cricket bigwigs such as Virendra Sehwag and Suresh Raina in the video.

Bollywood has been amply represented in the video by names such as Jimmy Shergill, Richa Chadda, Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma, Vatsal Sheth, Ishita Sheth and Angad Bedi. Famous stand-up comedian Sunil Grover too is part of the song. The Punjabi entertainment industry has been represented by the likes of Amy Virk, Binnu Dhillon and Gurpreet Ghuggi in the musical video.

“The USP of the song is the stellar performance of actor- turned Covid philanthropist Sonu Sood, who has sent migrants from Mumbai to their native places during the outbreak,” said Gilhotra.

“Actor Manoj Bajpai has given a refreshing start in the form of a prelude to the song. We have got some good enactments in the video from the cricketing as well as the B-Town world,” Gilhotra added. — TNS
