Rahman composes eight tracks for the movie while Javed Akhtar pens all the songs. Sound engineers on the album are regular Rahman acquaintances S. Sivakumar and H. Sridhar. Sony Music has released the audio. Side A starts off with Ghanan Ghanan sung by half a dozen singers. The list goes Udit Narayan, Alka Yagnik, Sukhwinder Singh, Shankar Mahadevan, Shaan, Kishori Gowariker and chorus.
Song is about villagers pleading to black clouds for rain.
The song has a melodious traditional tune and plays sounds of natural instruments like dafli, dholak, clap sounds along with bangs depicting the lightning. Though natural instruments would have helped better, it still makes for a good listening on the whole. Second song Mitwa is sung by Udit Narayan, Alka Yagnik, Sukhwinder Singh and Srinivas . It s a foot-tapping song with a rhythm that mounts passion in parts. Sarangi interludes in back along with steady drumbeats and Ghatam sounds add to the primeval feel.
