Well-known Pakistani musician and actor, Ali Zafar, has hinted that he might make a new anthem for the 2023 World Cup because many fans didn't like the official song called "Dil Jashn Bole."

The official song, which had Indian actor Ranveer Singh and Bollywood composer Pritam, didn't get a very excited response from cricket fans. Ali Zafar said he wants to help and show his love for his country by making a new song.

Even though he knows that big companies are involved in making these songs, fans are excited to hear more about his plans for the new anthem.

The 2023 ICC World Cup will happen in India, with 10 teams playing at 10 different places from October 5 to November 19. They'll have 45 league matches, and the top four teams will go to the semifinals.
