Jhootha Hi Sahi is the soundtrack to the 2010 Bollywood romantic comedy film of the same name, directed by Abbas Tyrewala starring John Abraham and Pakhi Tyrewala. The soundtrack, consisting of seven original tracks and two remix versions was composed by A. R. Rahman with lyrics penned by Abbas Tyrewala. The audio was officially released on 17 September by Sa Re Ga Ma at the Sa Re Ga Ma Pa competition. The album was very well received by the critics and was the chart topper for some weeks. The album has been praised by several reviewers as a newer genre in soundtracks.
"Call Me Dil", a track from the album became the first track that has been repeated 360 times on any radio channel in a single day across 15 cities in India. The track which was aired in Radio City is on its way to get an entry into the Limca Book of Records. The album also holds another record for being the first album to be released on the LP record format after more than a decade.
Following the success of Rahman's previous collaboration with Abbas Tyrewala, Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, he composed the musical score and soundtrack of Jhootha Hi Sahi, too. The soundtrack consists of seven original tracks and two remix versions. The collectors edition special pack also had karaokes of all the nine tracks. Rahman had composed eight tracks for the film, however a track by Shaan and Sunidhi Chauhan will not feature in the film or soundtrack album. There are also reports that Rahman has made an impromptu decision to record two more songs for the film, one a title track and the other for the opening and closing credits of the movie. There were rumours that KK and Adnan Sami have recorded songs for the album, however this did not happen. A few of the songs were recorded in London, while the rest were recorded in Chennai.
