The film has music by Shaan Rahman and Jakes Bejoy. Today, Jakes Bejoy took to his social media handle to announce that Shreya Ghoshal has sung a peppy number in the album.
Dropping pictures with the ace singer at the recording studio, Bejoy wrote, "So happy to have @shreyaghoshal in a peppy track in #kingofkotha. Just done with the recording. #KOK @dulQuer #AbhilashJoshiy @DQsWayfarerFilm @zeestudiossouth (sic)."

Taking to his social media handle, he wrote, "Finally here it is. Couldn't have asked for a better debut than this one in Malayalam alongside the most amazing human being/actor @dulQuer sir Love you sir. And my favourite director abhilash joshiy sir (sic)."
The actor had announced his Malayalam debut earlier this year with the post, "So happy to share my next big step with you all on this special day! #kingofkotha and happy Pongal everyone! Looking forward to this exciting journey! Love you all (sic)."
