Music
The music was composed by Bappi Lahiri, with lyrics by Anjaan. The soundtrack album was released in 1983. The electronic dance song "Koi Lutera" sung by Asha Bhosle is considered a precursor to acid house, with an aggressively tweaked Roland TB-303 bassline, drum machine beats and sound effect samples. The song was influenced by Charanjit Singh's Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat (1982).
