Song
Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki - Director Raj Khosla had asked Laxmikant - Pyarelal to compose the music for the film's title song although the lyrics were not yet ready. Upon seeing Laxmikant - Pyarelal's dilemma, lyricist Anand Bakshi came to their rescue by giving them the next line, "Koi nahin main tere saajan ki", which gave the music directors enough to compose this song.
Chhap Tilak Sab Chheeni Re - The lyrics for this song were Anand Bakshi's adaptation of a poem by the 13th-century poet Amir Khusro.
