Mumbai: Zee TV is all set to change the face of music reality shows once again with its latest non-fiction property, the Indian Pro Music League (IPML). This unique music league will have six teams representing different regions of India, battling it out against each other in a musical championship.

The channel is launching a vibrant anthem at the Zee Rishtey Awards 2020 that will have each of its 12 team captains coming together for the very first time. Composed by Sajid – Wajid, this musical masterpiece is amongst the last few compositions of the duo before Wajid Khan’s tragic demise.
Composer of the Indian Pro Music League Anthem, Sajid Khan said, “In my entire career, the Indian Pro Music League Anthem has taken me the longest time to compose and record. Wajid and I were kicked about it when it came to us and we worked on it day and night. This is one of our last pieces of composition together and hence, I am very emotional about it and it is very close to my heart. What makes this even more magical is that we have 18 top singers singing such an anthem for the very first time. Talking about the anthem, it is quite different from our usual compositions. It is upbeat, charged with passion and has a lot of regional flavours to it. I can’t wait and watch to see the audience’s reaction.”
The Indian Pro Music League Anthem, which showcases the different regional flavours of the six zonal teams Mumbai Warriors, Delhi Dhurandhars, UP Dabbangs, Punjab Lions, Bengal Tigers and Gujarat Rockers has been written by five lyricists – Danish Sabri (son of Iqbal Sabri), Paresh Hingu, Prashant Hingole, Perry ji and Sajid Khan.
