Development
Basrur has been frequently collaborated with Neel since their feature debuts with Ugramm (2014) and the KGF franchise. This is also his third film in Telugu, following Marshal (2019) and Sasanasabha (2022).[1] For the film's score, Basrur collaborated with international musicians to record the orchestral music. The brass section has a 60-member ensemble who recorded the drums, brass and other orchestral scores for four days. Besides composing, Basrur had also worked with the sound design with engineers mastering the score in DTS and Dolby Digital formats.[2][3] Basrur started recording the background score during August and September 2023.[4]

Divo served as the digital distributor for the film's music. The soundtrack was preceded with the first single "Sooreede" on 13 December 2023 sung by Harini Ivaturi.[5][6] The song picturizes on the friendship between Prabhas and Sukumaran, while media reports falsely clarify the song to be about brotherhood.[7][8] The second single "Prathikadalo" was released on 21 December.[9][10] The third single titled "Sound of Salaar" was released on 22 December 2023.[11] The fourth single titled "Vinaraa" was released on 26 December 2023.[12] The song "Aaru Sethulunnaa" was released along with full soundtrack album on 31 December 2023.[13]
