Reception

Critical reviews of the soundtrack were generally favourable, though some in the media called it a disappointment. ^[4] Joginder Tuteja of Bollywood Hungama gave the album a rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars, saying that it was "another good outing for Bollywood music lovers." He especially praised the songs "Chori Chori", "Koi Tumsa Nahi" and "Pyaar Ki Ek Kahaani." ^[5] Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com gave a favourable review for the soundtrack's "catchy" songs. However, she felt that while the songs meshed with the film, "none of them bear the staying power of Rajesh Roshan's earlier soundtracks." ^[6]

Dr. Mandar V. Bichu of Gulf News said that it did not live up to the pre-release expectations, adding "most of the tunes sound like they've been rehashed from past popular tracks" though the album had few good songs. ^[7] Nikhat Kazmi of The Times of India added that the album "promises to be no chartbuster", and praised the choreography. ^[8]

The album was the seventh highest-selling Bollywood soundtrack of the year, according to Box Office India. ^[9]
