Prem Ratan Dhan Payo is the soundtrack to the 2015 film of the same name, written and directed by Sooraj Barjatya. Produced by Rajshri Productions, it stars Salman Khan and Sonam Kapoor in the lead role. The soundtrack features 10 songs, curated by Himesh Reshammiya and written by Irshad Kamil.[2] While Sanjoy Chowdhury composed the original background score for the film.
T-Series acquired the music rights of the film at a cost of ₹17 crore (US$2.0 million), which was the biggest music deal for any Bollywood film till that date.[3][4]
The first song "Prem Leela" was released as a single on 7 October 2015.[5] The full music album of Prem Ratan Dhan Payo was released on 10 October 2015.[6]
Initially, the director Sooraj Barjatya wanted to rope in Ravindra Jain or any of the conventional music composers. However Salman Khan recommended Himesh Reshammiya to Barjatya to compose songs for the film as he believed that both Reshammiya and Barjatya would bond on their similar style of working.[7][8]
"Sooraj was very particular about the kind of music he wanted for the film. The prerequisite was to find a composer who has the patience to create an elaborate album like PRDP. His and Himesh’s sensibilities matched as they both like to take time on each song and work on its detailing. Sooraj’s only brief to Himesh was to avoid any kind of electronic music. He wanted old-world music and humble songs."[9]
— Salman Khan
Once all the songs were finalised, Barjatya was also present for the final recordings of even chorus singers as he wanted the chorus singers’ rendition to be in sync with the junior artistes.[9]
