One of the main highlights of the concert was the song Bharat Vishwa Vijeta, which was specially composed by Mangeshkar’s brother Hridaynath Mangeshkar and penned down by famous lyricist Indeevar for the victorious team. The members of the World Cup winning Indian team formed the chorus to back the voice of Mangeshkar.
Two decades later in 2003, When Lata Mangeshkar needed the fund for her hospital - Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital & Research Center, built in memory of her father in Pune, BCCI came forward to repay the old debt and organized a fundraising match for the hospital. The match was played right after the 2003 World Cup between India and Sri Lanka and money collected went to Mangeshkar hospital.
