Critics based at Bollywood Hungama wrote "Songs – 'Yaad Aate Hain', 'Main Hoon Woh Dharti Maa' and 'Naina Re Lobhi' – fail to entice or move the viewers. Satish Raghunathan's background score is heroic."^[13] The Free Press Journal wrote "the music and songs fail to light up patriotism and the ‘josh’ and ‘junoon’ that is required of a film of this nature and stature [...] Tracks like ‘Yaad Aate Hain' and 'Main Hoon Woh Dharti Maa' seem like an amateur attempt to recreate the magic of cult and evergreen patriotic tracks like ‘Sandese Aate Hain’ and others... The film’s background music (Satish Raghunathan) is taut and syncs with the narrative."^[14] Mayur Sanap of Rediff.com wrote "The plaintive music adds to the sombre mood and heightens the emotion."^[15] Nandini Ramnath of Scroll.in found the songs to be "forgettable".^[16] Renuka Vyavahare of The Times of India wrote "The music too is disappointingly flat — you can’t help but recall every rousing Border track that might have elevated the drama here."^[17]
