Kings XI Punjab IPL team song

Can’t believe we thought the Kolkata Knight Riders theme tune was good. This urinates all over it.

Our sole criticism is that they didn’t use that monstrously fat Sikh singer. We don’t know his name. Anyone?

Thanks to Soviet Onion for wasting his work time to find this.

    Daler Mehendi! There were reports suggesting he was singing the anthem.

    The worlds gone made! Vaughan can’t keep students balls away from his offstump and the IPL have incredibly cheesey videos to sell things. Why does everything to do with the IPL seem to be intent on making a joke of itself

    Ottayan, we had a look at Daler Mehndi and we’re not sure he’s the one. He’s not as fat as we remember this guy.

    We might have added colour to our memory, however and increased his proportions.

    Narkins, its like all ridiculously rich entities. They’re rich and they don’t care what everyone thinks. Look at Richard Branson and his demin look and THAT hair. Bill Gates and his general look.

    We can point and laugh but deep down we know we will never be as rich or look as stupid as them.

    We’d disagree with that. We can DEFINITELY look more stupid than just about anyone. We’ll go toe-to-toe with rich and poor and we’ll look stupider than any of them.

    We will never be rich though – you’ve got that right.

    Kingy Crics: I think you’re conflating two different non-bollywood actor Indian pop singers. There’s Daler Mehendi, then there’s that other guy who IS massively fat, and who isn’t a Sikh (or at least not a turdan and beard observant Sikh).
    Anyone know more?

    You may well be right.

    Massively fat non-Sikh Indian singers anyone?

    There’s Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, who is a Pakistani Muslim non-pop singer, but is massively fat.

    He’s a bit too dead to reasonably contribute to a theme song, though.

    That’s not him. We’re sure he’s a pop singer. We must have at least one of the facts right other than that he’s massively fat.

    You’ll be a Kings XI Punjab man, won’t you Mahinda, what with having Mahela and Kumar in their side?

    And this UNBELIEVABLE video, of course.

    Yep, I believe so. I’ve only just decided this, having previously taken very little notice. It’s Twenty20, and it’s in India. Meh.

    The video, of course, has changed all that.

    Anything + Dancing Girls = Better

    Except possibly the last World Cup Final. Even the perkiest of dancing girls couldn’t assuage that particular pain.

    Maybe you meant Adnan Sami ..

    He’s lost weight though.. Maybe he’s dating Kim Lyons.

    Nemo, just had a look and that might well be him. Good work.

    And has he ever lost weight. This might explain why he wasn’t singing a theme song. Everyone’s too disappointed in him and his new size.
