A source says,

“Kabir Khan is not a huge fan of forcefully inserting songs in the screenplay and believes in a situational music. The story of Tubelight revolves around several relationships and the script demanded merely three songs.”

The music of Tubelight is composed by Pritam who is currently banking high on the success of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
