The soundtrack, featuring 7 songs composed by A. R. Rahman, was launched on 28 June 2003. It was the tenth collaboration of Shankar and Rahman, a combination that is widely accepted to be one of the most successful in whole India. About the making of "Girlfriend", Shankar said, "I had told my crew and associates in the beginning itself that we had to think like an 18-year-old as the film is about youth and their desires. So when lyricist Pa.Vijay and Rahman sat together, we wanted a catchy number which the youth can relate to. At 18, every boy dreams of having a girlfriend. Rahman came up with a perfect fast paced peppy tune and Vijayan’s lyrics fell into place as it establishes the yearning for a girlfriend. It sets the mood for the film as it appears in the first reel of Boys." After 9 years, Boys will be dubbed in Hindi and is to release in 2012. The Hindi version's songs were released on 15 August 2012 by Pen Music Ltd.
