"The issue that I focused on was the lack of space for children to play due to the growing level of dirt and grime in the surroundings," Joshi said in a statement.

The lyricist also wanted to accelerate gully cricket, which is slowly fading away.


"Cricket is a much loved sport but many a times children find a lack of playing spaces. Hence, I decided to clean the gully where cricket finds its ardent followers," he added.

The campaign initiated by Joshi also involves a cricket tournament for the kids.

He also nominated 10 people including Venu Srinivasan, Kiran Rao, Neerja Birla, Nitish Kapoor, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, Irrfan Khan, Jeev Milkha Singh, Shankar Mahadevan, Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash, to carry forward the message and aim of his 'Clean Sweep' campaign.
