Background
[edit]The film score was composed by Mannan Munjal, whereas the songs featured in the film were composed by Dr. Zeus, Amaal Mallik, Meet Bros Anjjan, Tony Kakkar and Uzair Jaswal, and lyrics written by Kumaar, Manoj Muntashir and Tony Kakkar.[1][2] Ensemble singers like Tulsi Kumar, Arijit Singh, Kanika Kapoor, Monali Thakur, Meet Bros Anjjan, Mohit Chauhan, Neha Kakkar, Krishna Beura, Neha Kakkar, Aishwarya Majmudar, Alamgir Khan and Jaswal have lent their voices for the film.[1]

Critical reception
[edit]The soundtrack of Ek Paheli Leela received generally positive reviews from critics. Critic Rajiv Vijayakar from Bollywood Hungama gave the album a rating of 3 out of 5 and stated "some tracks will help the film, some will be helped by the film, but the rest are largely fillers. With four of the nine tracks being re-creations, the score gets a fillip in theory."[10] Kasmin Fernandes of The Times of India gave a rating of 4 and commented that "the originals stand out more than adaptations here."[11] Joginder Tuteja of Rediff.com gave the soundtrack three stars and wrote "the music of Ek Paheli Leela has a good mix of party and romantic numbers. It's the original numbers in the soundtrack that do better than the adapted versions. Play this one when you want some variety; it has a good mix of party and romantic numbers."[12] Karthik Srinivasan of Milliblog wrote "Dr.Zeus alone unravels this paheli."[13]
