Singer Babul Supriyo designed a jersey for the football club, Mohun Bagan, with his daughter Sharmilee's colour pencils after seeing
one of their matches recently
He felt that the jersey lacked the right mix of the signature green and maroon colours on it. His design was selected as the club's
2012-2013 footballing season. The jersey was unveiled over the weekend in Kolkata in the presence of Dutch football great Ruud
Gullit.
Incidentally, Babul's proposal for an alternative to tie-breakers during matches has been welcomed by the footballing fraternity with
the proposal being sent to the international football association. Let's sing to this!
