The film's soundtrack album was composed by Anu Malik.
The song "I Love You, I Love You" was reportedly plagiarized from Pakistani Qawwali singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's "Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo". Khan was reportedly aggrieved when Malik turned his spiritual "Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo" into "I Love You, I Love You". Khan said "He has taken my devotional song 'Allahu' and converted it into 'I love you'. He should at least respect my religious songs."
