Speaking on the music, A R Rahman comments “It has always been a pleasure to associate with Ashutosh on his projects. We started off with Lagaan and then Swades, both of which gave me immense creative satisfaction as a composer. It was an honour that Jodhaa Akbar was offered to me.”
The music of the film marks the launch of UTV Music, and UTV chief Ronnie Screwvala said, “A film of the magnitude and calibre of Jodhaa Akbar with its outstanding music compositions is the perfect vehicle for the launch of UTV Music.”
