The soundtrack was released at an event held at Shilpakala Vedika in Hyderabad on 8 August 2014, and distributed by Junglee Music in digital and physical formats.

Development

S. Thaman was roped in to compose the music and background score for this film. It was reported that he began working on this film since 25 November 2013.[1] The music sittings were held in Chennai and Thaman completed composing the songs of the film on 20 May 2014, which he confirmed in his Twitter by posting an image featuring himself, Ravi Teja and K. S. Ravindra in Thaman's studio.[2] In the end of May 2014, Ravi Teja crooned for the number Notanki Notanki whose lyrics were penned by Bhaskarabhatla which was recorded in Chennai.[3] On 25 July 2014, Thaman posted in his Twitter page that prominent music director Chakri sang a song in the film's soundtrack.[4] On 4 August 2014, a press release stated that the film's soundtrack would be launched on 8 August 2014, by hosting a promotional event at Shilpakala Vedika in Hyderabad.[5] Times Music South, also known as Junglee Music acquired the audio rights of the film.[6] The track list without details of singers, lyricists and duration was released on 6 August 2014, which featured 5 songs which were available later at Raaga.com.[7] The soundtrack disc's back cover was released by Junglee Music on the next day which in addition contained the details of singers and the lyricists.[8]

The cast and crew of the film were present at the audio launch event at Shilpakala Vedika where V. V. Vinayak, Dil Raju and Karnataka MP Muniratna Naidu were invited as the chief guests. V. V. Vinayak presented the audio CD of the film to Muniratna Naidu amidst thundering applause from the audience.[9] Reviewing the soundtrack, IndiaGlitz wrote "The very title must have got Thaman give foot-tapping numbers. Added to the title, Ravi Teja is the one doing the 'power' role. So, don't expect anything less than a sure-short mass album. And this one is exactly that. With lyrics coming from Bhaskarabhatla to Yadgiri to Sirivennela to Krishna Chaitanya, the lyrics are bound to be nothing less than eclectic. The vocals are alright, with none other than Ravi Teja and Chakri leading the pack. Adnan Sami and Karthik deliver a dekko as well. The album is a package for the fans of Mass Maharaja, who wouldn't demand musical richness when it is their favourite hero who is jiving."[10]
