The music to the 2019 film Uri: The Surgical Strike featured original score and songs composed by Shashwat Sachdev. The film directed by Aditya Dhar and produced by Ronnie Screwvala under RSVP Movies, starred Vicky Kaushal, along with Yami Gautam, Paresh Rawal, Kirti Kulhari and Mohit Raina, and is a fictionalized retelling of the retaliation to the 2016 Uri terror attack. Sachdev worked on the film's music for eight months which utilized synthesizers and orchestra and was recorded at his Kuhn Labs and Synchron Stage Vienna in Austria, with a 150-member crew performing the score conducted by Sachdev. The songs further utilized sparse instrumentation to underline the emotional impact. The soundtrack album featured five songs with lyrics written by Kumaar, Raj Shekhar and Abhiruchi Chand. It was released under the Zee Music Company label on 4 January 2019, a week prior to the film's release. After Shaswat received acclaim for the score, it was released separately as a 20-track album, two weeks after the film's theatrical run; both the music and background score, met with acclaim and Sachdev won the National Film Award for Best Music Direction and the Filmfare R.
