extraaa
innings
T20
this
year
promises
to
entertain
you
just
as
it
did
the
last
season,
the
exception
being,
like
everything
else
about
the
DLF
IPL
2010,
extraaa
innings
T20
is
also
going
to
be
bigger
and
better.
MAX
has
created
yet
another
mesmerising
way
to
mirror
the
people"s
emotions
and
say
“DLF
IPL
2010
'Laut
Aaya".
Composed
by
the
musical
duo,
Vishal-Shekhar
and
sung
by
Shekhar,
'Laut
Aaya" is
a
melody
of
grand
scale
that
will
be
used
to
picture
the
opening
montage
of
extraaa
innings
T20.
'Laut
Aaya"
is
a
melody
made
up
of
distinctly
Indian
notes
fused
seamlessly
with
western
Rock,
characteristic
of
Vishal-Shekhar
compositions
and
symbolic
of
the
deep
rooted
Indian
identity
that
is,
distinct
and
yet
all
embracing.
The
notes
of
this
song
will
reverberate
through
out
this
season
of
DLF
IPL
illustrated
by
an
equally
rich
and
explosive
visual.
In
sync
with
the
theme
of
emotion
and
energy
with
which
everything
DLF
IPL
will
be
presented
on
MAX
this
year,
the
video
has
been
shot
in
all
the
grandeur
of
a
cricket
stadium
full
of
cheering
crowds.
It
will
fill
you
up
with
intoxicating
energy
and
a
celebratory
fervor.
Commenting
on
the
initiative,
Vishal
Dadlani
says,
“It"s
a
song
of
home-coming
and
of
wanting
to
come
home.
It"s
been
written
from
the
point
of
view
of
a
son
who"s
returning
home
after
a
long
journey.
It"s
very
evocative
and
sensory,
to
the
extent
that
you
can
smell
and
taste
the
familiar
aromas
and
tastes
of
home.
We
hope
that
every
time
the
audience
hears
the
song
on
MAX
extraaa
innings
T20,
they
enjoy
the
song
and
the
feeling
communicated
through
it."
Commenting
on
this
initiative,
Jasdeep
Singh
Pannu,
Vice
President
Programming,
MAX
says,
“This
up-beat
sound
track
combined
with
an
equally
energetic
and
joyful
video
is
meant
primarily
to
be
all
inclusive
and
engage
the
average
Indian
television
viewer.
The
idea
is
to
draw
inspiration
and
synergy
from
the
pan-India
emotion
that
the
DLF
IPL
brings
about–
from
Chennai
to
Mohali."
