The chorus has been recreated for the film by composer Ram Sampath.[5] Additional lyrics are written by Javed Akhtar.[6] The original Qurbani music video featured actress Zeenat Aman with Feroz Khan, while the Raees music video features Indian-Canadian actress Sunny Leone with Shah Rukh Khan.[7]

"Saanson Ke" track is sung by Javed Ali in the film version.[8] The song "Halka Halka" was removed from the film and the album because it didn't suit the film's script, but was later released after the film's theatrical release.[9]
