This is especially noteworthy, given that previous anthems have received mixed responses. Ever since Zafar's last collaboration with the PSL, his ardent fans have complained every year about PSL anthems not living up to the hype created by Zafar's take on the sport. While many renditions have also been appreciated, the release of the anthem is always a highly driven digital event, with netizens rushing to provide critique, share appreciation, or make memes. As the singer continues to hype up his upcoming anthem, it is yet to be seen how the internet will react to this comeback.
