“Priyanka further convinced me to utilize this opportunity for trying my hand in singing. On Sunday, we recorded this melodious track and I really enjoyed it. I hope listeners and fans will appreciate my effort as they have all this while supported me whenever I am playing the game for my country,” he added.
