NEW DELHI: Going into the new Indian Premier League (IPL) season with a brand new identity, JSW and GMR co-owned franchise, Delhi Capitals on Sunday launched their official anthem for the upcoming season of the IPL.

The anthem looksto capture and showcase the vibes of the city of New Delhi with its lyrics, which have also been written by Trivedi. The video features most of the iconic locations of the capital city, which play host to the Delhi Capitals’ fans and players who are seen enjoying the beats of the anthem.
Speaking on the occasion of the launch of the anthem, Trivedi said: "It's been an absolute honour and great fun working on this year's anthem for the Delhi Capitals - Roar Machaa. Delhi as a city has tremendous energy, and you can almost never stop a Dilliwala from shaking a leg if the music's peppy and catchy.
"We want the city and its people to experience the quintessential Dilli vibe through this song. That's why we've incorporated words like 'scene' and 'swagger', and phrases like 'lagi padhi hai lanka' that are typically Delhi. And the stress on the word 'roar', a natural continuation from the team's magnificent tiger logo, essentially captures a quality that Delhiites possess – fierceness."
The anthem can be viewed on the following social media platforms:
