Development[]

In mid-April 2014, Sohail Sen was selected to compose the music for the film which was his Telugu debut.[1] He also met the makers in Hyderabad for the music sittings later.[2] But Anoop Rubens replaced him in June 2014 as the music director of the film. The makers said that he composed and recorded a song before the launch of the film and it was also said that all the songs would be recorded in a week's time from the launch.[3] The film's soundtrack was reported to feature 3 songs in total and Pawan Kalyan was reported to appear in two of them. A unique audio launch was planned by the makers which was different from routine events.[4] Kailash Kher completed recording for a special song in the soundtrack on 12 December 2014.[5] Apart from the single track Bhaje Bhaaje written by Anantha Sreeram, the lyrics for the other two songs were penned by Sirivennela Sitaramasastri and Chandrabose; Sonu Nigam was the other playback singer apart from Kailash Kher and Haricharan.[6] The album cover features Pawan Kalyan's character riding a bike with Venkatesh's character sitting behind terrified.

Release[]

Lahari Music acquired the film's audio rights along with Drushyam for an amount of ₹80 lakh (US$110,000).[7] In mid November 2014, the soundtrack album was announced to be released in the end of November 2014.[8] The release date was confirmed as 5 December 2014 in late November 2014.[9] But it was postponed later to 11 December 2014.[10] The song Bhaje Bhaaje sung by Dhanunjay and Haricharan and penned by Anantha Sreeram was released on 15 December 2014 as a single track.[11] The song was listened by 1 lakh viewers in YouTube within 10 hours of its release and received 2,500 likes.[12] The audio launch event was held on 25 December 2014 at Ramanaidu Studios in Nanakramguda, Hyderabad.[13]
