"Even after spending so much money, the song composed by A R Rahman is disappointing. He should be asked to recompose the song," the BJP leader told reporters here.
Hussain, who was the Sports Minister during the NDA regime, said people expected the song to be a big hit but it has turned out to be damp squib.

The Commonwealth Games committee has reportedly spent more than Rs five crore on the song and has the voices of Sukhwinder and Shankar Mahadevan alongside Rahman.

The song was released here on Monday by Rahman for the October 3-14 mega sports spectacle after it was cleared by a Group of Ministers on the Commonwealth Games on August 16.
