UIButton*playButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];

Try this.. It will work Perfectly..

[playButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"playIconPlay.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

[playButton setFrame:CGRectMake(20,20,128,128)];

[playButton setTitle:@"Play Click" forState:UIControlStateNormal];

[playButton setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

[playButton addTarget:self action:@selector(playButtonAction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];


[scrollView addSubview:playButton];
[scrollView bringSubviewToFront:playButton];
