Zeishan Quadri is on cloud nine as his directorial debut 'Meeruthiyan Gangsters' is all set to release on the 18th of September.With films like Gangs of Wasseypur and Revolver Rani in his kitty, Zeishan is much known for his interest in doing something out of the box, be it acting or directing. But this time Zeishan has surprised everyone by doing something which has never been done before.

The talented director, who has been seen as an actor in his previous stints has encouraged one of India's favourite cricketer to step into the singer's shoe for his upcoming film, none other than Suresh Raina.

Suresh who has been a dear friend to Zeishan and Shoeb has been caught crooning to some songs many times with which he was impressed. They always wanted to get this talent out of Suresh and what better opportunity to do so than make him sing for a promotional song in his film 'Meeruthiyan Gangsters'.

"I was looking forward to an opportunity where i could involve him and am very excited that he will be singing for my film. I'm happy that he has agreed to do this and I am grateful to him as he has removed time for it from his busy schedule" says Zeishan.


When spoken to Suresh; "Yes I will be in Mumbai on Sunday to record the song. I love Old Hindi songs and immediately came on board for this melodius track of 'Meeruthiyan Gangsters' and we will be improvising on the music as i am doing this for the first time.

Seems like 'Meeruthiyan Gangsters' will pack a punch with such names being associated with it. Surprisingly, Zeishan has pitted his movie against the Kangana Ranaut - Imran Khan starrer 'Katti Batti' which is releasing on the same day.
