The film introduces DJ Aqeel as a film score composer.[1] He has recreated the song Ek Do Teen. The new track has been voiced by Shreya Ghoshal. However, Shreya has later also rendered a new version of the same song for the movie Baaghi 2 released in 2018. Apart from that, Ghoshal has also sung a slow number composed by Lalit Pandit.[3]
