Amidst criticism for the theme song composed for the CWG, AR Rahman has recomposed the same into a more peppy number.The song "Yaaron ye India bula liya" was released by Rahman in a function organized in Gurgaon recently. The initial reaction from the CWG Organizing Committee was mixed, as a few members found the song dull and not 'up to the mark'. Rahman had mentioned that he took six months to compose the song.Some officials even said that they wanted a song on the lines of Shakira's Waka Waka for the Football World Cup. Now the latest news is that Rahman has re-modeled the song as requested and the song is now livelier.Prasoon Joshi, the lyricist for the song, said that the song is now 'more vigorous and peppy'. He confirmed that Rahman has indeed recomposed the song on Thursday. The new version has been shortened as well.Rahman, it is rumored, had received Rs. 5 crore for composing the song.
