Khan Saab’s Anthem Fires Up Amritsar Soormas as Playoff Race Heats Up

Friday night in Amritsar turned into a mini‑festival when the Soormas franchise gathered its players, coaches and support staff for a special bonding session. The occasion? A brand‑new anthem, launched live by Punjabi singer‑songwriter Khan Saab, whose voice has been humming through cinema halls ever since his hit song in ‘Dhurandhar’.

As the Sher‑e‑Punjab T20 League inches toward its final stretch, the Soormas find themselves perched on the edge of the playoffs. After a modest start – only one win in their first four outings – every remaining match now feels like a final. The anthem, dripping with pride, taps into Amritsar’s storied resilience and the broader Punjab tradition of standing tall against odds.

“This is more than a song,” Khan Saab told the assembled squad, his tone half‑serious, half‑playful. “It’s a reminder that the city behind you never backs down, and neither should you on the field.” He then sang the chorus, the crowd swaying, some players even humming along, while the hall echoed with the familiar beat of his biggest chart‑busters.

Leading the charge with the bat is the flamboyant Abhishek Sharma, whose explosive strokes have already earned him a reputation as one of the league’s most entertaining hitters. Alongside him, Naman Dhir and the rest of the batting line‑up have embraced an aggressive mindset, turning what could have been a cautious chase into an outright spectacle.

For the Soormas, the anthem is not just a catchy tune – it’s a morale booster. The players admitted that hearing Khan Saab’s voice felt like a “pat on the back” from fans across Punjab, reinforcing the belief that the whole state is cheering them on. With four pivotal games left, the hope is that the energy generated off the pitch will translate into runs, wickets and, ultimately, a ticket to the playoffs.

In the words of team captain, “We’ll carry this feeling onto the field. If we play with the same passion as that song, the playoffs will be ours.” The night ended with applause, a few impromptu dance steps, and a shared sense that the Soormas are more united than ever.
