The soundtrack album of Maha Chor (1976) was composed by music maestro R.D. Burman, while lyrics were written by Anand Bakshi. It featured the super hit duet sung by Kishore Kumar & Asha Bhosle, “Mithi Mithi Ankhiyon Se Man Bhar De.”
The album also featured the memorable national integration song, “Hindu Hoon Main, Na Musalman Hoon, Mazhab Se Apne Mein Anjaan Hoon, Bas Itna Pata Hai Mein Insaan Hoon” sung by Kishore Kumar.
