The soundtrack of Aryabhatt Ka Zero (2026) is led by composer and lyricist Manan Bhardwaj, who shapes the album around the film’s themes of ambition, resilience and finding purpose after setbacks. Directed by Kamal Chandra and starring Himansh Kohli, Sonnalli Seygall and Ravi Kishan, the film offers a dramatic backdrop for a collection featuring Stebin Ben, Master Saleem, Sachet Tandon, Parampara Tandon, Sulabh Nagpal and Manan himself. The soundtrack has a clear contemporary identity, although its reliance on familiar romantic and motivational styles keeps it from feeling especially distinctive. (T-Series; IMDb)
Musically, the album moves between sentimental romance and more energetic, rhythm-driven arrangements. “Dil Naiyo Lagna” leans into a polished heartbreak sound, while “Dil Farzi” brings a livelier pop sensibility through Sachet and Parampara’s duet. “Humesha” and “Tum Mile” explore softer emotional territory, and “Yatree Samaan Ka” adds a more earthy vocal colour with Master Saleem. The songs are accessible, but the compositions and lyrical themes sometimes feel predictable rather than particularly adventurous. (Qobuz)
The vocal performances are one of the album’s stronger elements. Stebin Ben gives “Dil Naiyo Lagna” a smooth, yearning quality, while Manan Bhardwaj brings intimacy to “Humesha.” Sachet Tandon and Parampara Tandon add energy and contrast to “Dil Farzi,” and Master Saleem’s distinctive voice gives “Yatree Samaan Ka” a more rooted feel. Sulabh Nagpal’s performance on “Tum Mile” is earnest, though the song itself does not leave as strong an impression as the album’s more engaging tracks. (T-Series)
Overall, Aryabhatt Ka Zero offers a few enjoyable melodies and capable performances, but it struggles to establish a truly memorable musical identity. The album’s romantic and motivational moments suit the film’s themes, yet several tracks feel familiar in their structure and production. With some appealing vocals but limited musical surprises, the soundtrack earns 6/10.
