 Sitaramasastri penned the lyrics for twelve songs, out of which nine songs form part of the soundtrack.According to Patro, Balachander wanted the songs to convey the story rather than serving the protagonists' dreams; the makers used verses from the poetry anthology "Maha Prasthanam", written by Telugu writer Sri Sri, in the song "Cheppalani Vundi".The song "Lalitha Priya Kamalam" was composed using Lalitha raga.
