The soundtrack album of the film was composed by legendary music director A. R. Rahman, while lyrics were written by Irshad Kamil. Songs like “Matargashti” sung by Mohit Chauhan and “Agar Tum Saath Ho” sung by Arijit Singh and Alka Yagnik became a rage throughout the nation at the time of the film’s release and are fondly remembered and played till today.

Tamasha was shot in parts in Corsica, France as well as in Tokyo. Due to it’s complicated plot, the film was only moderately successful at the box office.
