The music was composed by [R. K. Shekhar](/source/R._K._Shekhar). The song "Vellithen Kinnam" is often claimed to be composed to his son Dileep (later known as [A. R. Rahman](/source/A._R._Rahman)), but singer Jayachandran confirmed this was not true.<ref>{{Cite web |date=September 11, 2022 |title=INTERVIEW {{!}} Nobody deserves to be called a Master these days: P Jayachandran |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/states/kerala/2022/Sep/11/interview--nobody-deserves-to-be-called-a-master-these-daysp-jayachandran-2496992.html |access-date=2025-12-12 |website=[The New Indian Express](/source/The_New_Indian_Express) |language=en}}</ref>
