![]() Whilst doing reconnaissance for the film, Rai recorded the live aarti chants for the score, however, the patch recordings were fit into a complete song titled "The Land of Shiva". ![]() The composer stated that he had used the sounds of shehnai in almost every song, thereby paying a tribute to Ustad Bismillah Khan. In an interview with Hindustan Times, Rahman stated that he had emphasized the folk-classical genre as the film brings out a fascination for Benaras through the music and most of the songs are character-driven. Rai attributed the melody and beauty of the particular song to "Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai" from the 1973 film Bobby. The composition of the song "Banarasiya" was ready by September 2012 but was not recorded with a singer as Rai felt that no vocals matched with Sonam Kapoor's voice. He agreed to compose after the script was re-written entirely in English by Rai and the former kept the script personally. Rahman was signed on to compose songs and the background score.
