In a newspaper interview, director Syed Noor said, ""When I read the verses of Baba Bulleh Shah I promised myself that I will  make a film on the great Sufi poet's 'ishq' and I was looking for an opportunity to do that. So, I discussed the story with my wife (Rukhsana Noor) who is also a writer. She converted it into a full-fledged script and finally I created "Majajan"... (Saima) didn't compromise on quality, and spent lavishly on making "Majajan" a great film." Majajan's soundtrack consists of 10 songs of which only half have been used.

Music is composed by the music director Zulfiqar Ali  and film song lyrics are by Khawaja Pervez, the Sufi poet Bulleh Shah and Aqeel Rubi.
