Rapper, composer Divine has launched a brand new track Kaam 25 for the Netflix Original Series Sacred Games. Based on the book by Vikram Chandra , the eight-episode thriller traces the riveting trajectory of Sartaj Singh (Saif Ali Khan), a seasoned, police officer, and Anjali Mathur (Radhika Apte), an intelligence officer, to the heart of a cryptic web woven by the menacing criminal overlord, Ganesh Gaitonde.
Set amid the chaos of Mumbai, the series directed by Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane explores the corrupt underworld lurking beneath India's economic renaissance.
Divine or Vivian Fernandez now the inspiration behind a Zoya Akhtar film has woven his perspective of the grimy margins of the city in Kaam 25 - a rousing, foot-tapping anthem. He is known to distill the spirit of the ‘gullies’ of Mumbai in his songs.
Kaam 25 captures the essence of the Maximum city. With his track, Divine exemplifies the predicament of Sartaj Singh, a cynical, struggling police officer, who has only 25 days to save his city!
“Kaam 25 has been one on the best projects to work on as it revolves around Mumbai and from a songwriting point of view, it was quite interesting as well. I’m a fan of all the actors involved in the show, I’m also a huge fan of the directors, so it was pretty cool to be asked to do something for Sacred Games.”Divine, Rapper and Composer
