Renuka Vyavahare of The Times of India said, "the music is underwhelming and does little to elevate the narrative or emotional beats".^[14] Anuj Kumar of The Hindu called the music "subtle and restrained".^[15] Shoma A Chatterjee of Mathrubhumi added "There are too many songs that at times, become disturbing because of the high decibels."^[16] Sakshi Salil Chavan of Outlook wrote "The score remains measured, with silence often carrying the greatest weight, though select sequences could have benefited from more nuanced musical emphasis."^[17] Bollywood Hungama wrote "White Noise Collectives’ songs – ‘Sitaare’, ‘Tera Aashiq’, ‘Sajda’ and ‘Biraadar Yamma Yamma’– don’t fully click. However, they are placed well though a song in the second half, played when the battle track has commenced in full force, could have been avoided. White Noise Collectives’ background score, on the other hand, works far better."^[18]
