Soundtrack
The film's score and soundtrack was composed by Ravi Raj. Four songs were retained as the same tune from the original version by R. P. Patnaik, among which one song is copied from a Malayalam song titled 'Kannadikkoodum Kootti' from the film 'Pranayavarnangal', released in 1998, which does not have any connection with the Telugu and Kannada versions.[3]
