The central thought running through the film is simple: “Zindagi choti hai… tension badi kyon?” The story does not chase big dramatic twists.

Music at the core

‘Jeena Dil Se’ is built around its soundtrack. The film has six songs woven directly into the narrative, making it a music-driven story rather than a film with a music album attached to it.

The tracks include the playful ‘Akkad Bakkad’, along with ‘Madhubala’ and ‘Saaton Janam’, which have already found an audience ahead of release. Music is composed by Vishal-Akash, also known as the Dhaneliya Brothers, with additional compositions by Rahul Jain and Prashant Ingole. Lyrics are written by Arafat Mehmood, Amardeep, Prashant Ingole and Kunal Verma.

The singers on the soundtrack include Shreya Ghoshal, Armaan Malik, Javed Ali, Nakash Aziz, Asees Kaur and Saumee Shailesh.

The film was shot across multiple locations in Haryana. Sequences like the Brahma Sarovar aarti give the film a grounded, authentic feel.
