“We are all singers, ye female singer ka tag hatt jaana chaiye,” says Shilpa Rao

Zee TV has been a pioneer and a trend-setter in shaping television content over the past three decades and is all set to change the face of music reality shows once again with its latest non-fiction property, the Indian Pro Music League (IPML).

Zee TV launched the world’s first-ever music league championship on February 26th, 2021

While the world of sports has seen several league competitions, this unique music league has six teams representing different regions of India, battling it out against each other in a musical championship.

Each of these six teams supported by leading Bollywood and sports celebrities has top playback singers as their captains, one reality show star, and one fresh voice.

“I feel ye female singer ka tag hatt jaana chaiye for all of us, We are all singers" Shilpa Rao

Celebrated singers - Mika Singh, Kailash Kher, Sajid Khan, Shaan, Ankit Tiwari, Javed Ali, Asees Kaur, Bhoomi Trivedi, Akriti Kakar, Payal Dev, Neha Bhasin, Shilpa Rao are captains of these six zonal teams.

At the shoot of an upcoming episode, the women singers made a very pertinent observation about the industry and spoke up about the change they believe we should all invest in, as a collective, rather than just celebrate one day in the entire year as 'Women's Day'.

Addressing fellow team captains like Akriti Kakkar, Neha Bhasin, Bhumi Trivedi, and Payal Dev, Mumbai Warriors captain Shilpa Rao said, “I feel ye female singer ka tag hatt jaana chaiye for all of us. We are all singers.

"It’s about time that we start addressing everyone equally and give deserved accolades regardless of their gender" Shilpa Rao

Be it male or female, it shouldn’t make any difference. It’s about time that we start addressing everyone equally and give deserved accolades regardless of their gender.” The other ladies chimed in and echoed her sentiments.

With Women's Day around the corner, looks like the naari shakti of the show - Shilpa Rao, Neha Bhasin, Payal Dev, and Akriti Kakar are requesting a much-needed change.

Apart from this serious conversation, the ladies came together and sang their hearts out as well, leaving everyone mesmerized with their fantastic performances.

But that's not it, Wait, till you see the six teams battle it out on the mega-musical stage.
