Soundtrack

The songs and background score were composed by Devendranath Chaterjee, an Indian composer. All the songs were superhits. The song "Akashe Batase" was reused from the original Telugu film, Manasantha Nuvve, which was itself based on a Malayalam song titled "Kannadi Koodum Kootti" from the film Pranayavarnangal (1998), sung by singers K. J. Yesudas and K. S. Chithra and composed by Vidyasagar. Whereas "Chupi Chupi Kichu Kotha" is a remake of the Telugu song "Kita Kita Thalupulu" (sung by K. S. Chitra) and "Moner Majhe Tumi" is a remake from "Manasantha Nuvve" (sung by Hemachandra and Usha). Both of these songs are from the original Telugu film.
