Gurukiran has composed the songs to the lyrics of Kaviraj. The Audio has been distributed by Anand Audio. Reception 
The Times of India gave 3.5/5 stars and wrote "The director makes the narration interesting by bringing in a family sentimental track and ending the story with an excellent fighting sequence for the front benchers. It could have been trimmed by at least 20 minutes to make it compact." B S Srivani from Deccan Herald concluded it as a "A frothy entertainer at its best". India Today wrote "While the fights and three songs are good, the inclusion of some unnecessary sequences in the second half drags the film. Even the story does not offer any freshness, but the production values makes the film much attractive. The comedy portions in the film are weak, but the song picturisations are a strong attraction of the film". References
