Hrithik to do music video with Shilpa Shetty for Rajasthan Royals and not Mumbai Indians

For the first installment of Indian Premiere League last year, Hrithik Roshan was roped in by the Mukesh Ambani-owned franchise Mumbai Indians to feature in their anthem, Duniya Hila Denge.

But B-Town is now buzzing with news that the actor is setting his sights higher up north this year and will feature in the Rajasthan Royals video this year.

No renewal

A source in the industry reveals, "Hrithik was on a one-year contract with the Mumbai cricket team.

Whenu00a0 approached for a renewal, the actor refused, citing date issues as he was busy with his film Kites."

Star power

The source further adds. "Shilpa Shetty, the latest name to be added to the Bollywood-IPL bandwagon, owns a percentage with inaugural league winners Rajasthan Royals.

Shilpa wants to go all out and make an extravagant music video for the team.

Last year, theirs was the only team without any star presence and that's the reason Shilpa now wants Hrithik to feature in the song.
