Ilayaraaja composed the music for the soundtracks with lyrics written by Chi. Udaya Shankar and R. N. Jayagopal. For the song ""Yaarigagi Aata", Ilaiyaraaja said the "brief demanded a ‘cabaret song’, but he did not want it to sound predictable. He showed how he had used an Indian raga , and made the beat choppy and modern". This song was set in Puriya Dhanashree raga. According to Deepa Ganesh of The Hindu wrote "Extremely modern and unconventional in its sensibility, the song is an outstanding rendition by S. Janaki. Ilayaraja lays out a brilliant rhythm pattern that keeps changing its contours".
