Its soundtrack was released on 27 September 2003 to positive reception, with the title song, "It's The Time To Disco", "Kuch To Hua Hai", and "Pretty Woman" particularly well-received. Kal Ho Naa Ho was released on 27 November 2003 with the promotional tagline, "A Story of a Lifetime ... In a Heartbeat".
