Sukhwinder Singh gives a rustic traditional Punjab treat with the first track of the album. 'Chandi Ki Surmedaani' is an upbeat track that lends the right effect to the soundtrack. Incorporating traditional 'boliyan' lyrics by Tajinder Harjit stands out. Sonu Kakkar's mushy voice gives the song the much-needed traditional touch. Though the song has its limitation to appeal to all kinds of music lovers, it'll go down well with people who prefer rustic music. Laced with Bhangra pop feel is the remix version of the same track. The snazzy beats and disco feel makes it an ideal hip shaking number.

Traditional folklore forms the base of the next track 'Boliyan' as well. The song has a situational feel and the monotonous drum beats mar the prospect of the song. Also the average vocal of Javed doesn't promise anything uplifting.

The emotional number "Gudiyan Gudiyan (My deep color bangles)" has a gripping effect as it imbibes pathos on the heart as the bride departs from her parents. The Punjabi traditional verses get a rustic feel with Sukhwinder and Swadeshi Kumari's vocals for this situational track. Feasible track for Punjabi audiences.

The wait for Sardool Sikander ends as he makes himself audible for the first time in the festive track 'Kala Doriyan'. Giving him company in the folksy paced track is Shreya Ghoshal with her soft voice. The simple music instruments along with the singers' vocals lend the song a traditional feel sans trendy incineration.

Festive soundtrack 'Mehndi' sparks the spirit for marriage preparations and celebrations in the film. This customary and traditional track has Deepali Somaiya behind the mike singing in her shrill voice. Due to the words and music the song implies to the emotions of the bride.

Overall the soundtrack has an outdated feel but might go along with small sect of Punjabi listeners. Keeping with the script the joy and emotion has been captured in the songs in the right manner but for the new generation of listeners this is not enough a treat.
