New Delhi, Sept 28 (IBNS) Responding enthusiastically to the Prime Minister's call for a 'jan andolan' to make the Swachh Bharat Mission successful, celebrities have come together to create a Swachh Bharat anthem aimed at enthusing and inspiring citizens to join hands in realizing the collective dream of a 'clean India'.

The anthem song, which has been written by lyricist Prasoon Joshi, set to tune by musical trio Shankar-Ehsan-Loy, and sung by Shankar Mahadevan and other playback singers, will also feature a video being produced by Mukesh Bhatt. 

Cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar has contributed to this endeavour by reciting a few lines that will specially feature in the anthem, as well as providing various musical suggestions for the recording. 

The audio of the song  is expected to be released on the eve of Mahatma Gandhi's birth anniversary on Oct 2.
