The film has only a handful of songs, which seems really unusual when compared with the other Sri Lankan films produced in the 1980s.

One of the best songs in the film is a Wadha Baila musical by Soyza and Wadigapatuna. In the song, we can see Soyza dressed as an angel and Wadigapatuna dressed as a devil. They both sing to Kanthi, who is sitting in-between like a goddess.
