Radio presenter Sunny Kapoor hit upon the idea during his show on
Kismat Radio, a popular radio station for south Asians here.
Kapoor, who is also known for his singing talents, wrote the lyrics

The song was composed soon after and recorded within a day.
The song, which has a duration of little over three minutes, is
interspersed with extracts from commentary of football matches and a
passage in rap.
It has backing vocals by Nisha Sharma, and begins thus:

hamara hai Beckham ka sahara hai Ao dikhaye jeet ke hum Kismat ka
ishara hai
Reports say that over 100 songs have been composed recently in
support of the England team. This is the first song to be composed
in Hindi or any Asian language, and is already a hit with listeners
on Kismat Radio.
"It all began with a laugh during the show. I said to my

website www.nrifm.com. ...
