The soundtrack for the movie was composed by Naushad and lyrics penned by Shakeel Badayuni. The soundtrack consists of 9 songs, featuring vocals by Mohammed Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhonsle. The song Mere Mehboob Tujhe became very much popular upon release. The song composed on raga Jhinjhoti, was later slightly adapted into Malayalam by M. S. Baburaj, to give two all time classic songs, "Thamasamenthe Varuvaan" (from Bhargavi Nilayam) and "Pranasakhi Njan Verumoru" (from Pareeksha). These songs were selected by Naushad as one of the few of his favourite songs when he visited Baburaj Music Academy in 1988.

Famous quotes containing the word music:
“But listen, up the road, something gulps, the church spire
Opens its eight bells out, skulls’ mouths which will not tire
To tell how there is no music or movement which secures
Escape from the weekday time. Which deadens and endures.”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
“My love shall hear the music of my hounds.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“But the dark changed to red, and torches shone,
And deafening music shook the leaves; a troop
Shouldered a litter with a wounded man,
Or smote upon the string and to the sound
Sang of the beast that gave the fatal wound.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
