Dabangg 2 (transl. Fearless 2) is the soundtrack to the 2012 film of the same name. Directed by Arbaaz Khan, the film is produced by himself and Malaika Arora under Arbaaz Khan Productions and Stellar Films. Khan's elder brother Salman Khan starred in the lead role.
The soundtrack album featured eight songs. The songs are composed by Sajid–Wajid while the lyrics were written by Jalees Sherwani, Irfan Kamal, and Sameer Anjaan. The full soundtrack album was released on 9 November 2012.
Production
The duo Sajid–Wajid composed the songs while the lyrics were written by Jalees Sherwani, Irfan Kamal, and Sameer Anjaan. Sajid Khan said that they started planning the sequel's music while they working on Dabangg. So they recruited most of the singers from the predecessor.
"Pandeyji Seeti" appears to be inspired by the song "Chalat Musafir" from the film Teesri Kasam (1966), which in turn was inspired by a Bihari folk song, and added little sample of previous song "Munni Badnaam Hui", which this song "Pandeyji Seeti", became sequel of this song In turn, "Pandeyji Seeti" itself appears to have inspired the song "Badri Ki Dulhania" in the film Badrinath Ki Dulhania (2017). The song "Fevicol Se" was sung by same singer Mamta Sharma.

Reception
Joginder Tuteja of Bollywood Hungama rated the music with 4/5 stars. Jaspreet Pandohar of BBC wrote "As bold and brash as its original, Dabangg 2's mammoth sound secures both Khan and Sajid-Wajid's place as premier hit makers in modern Bollywood history." A critic of Filmfare wrote "In a bid to assure that the film becomes a hit, the composers have done injustice to their music. If only they were more Dabangg."
Anand Vaishnav of India Times wrote "Dabangg 2’s music has been composed, keeping in mind the setting and theme of the film. And there are more than obvious references to the prequel’s blockbuster soundtrack. But that unfortunately is also its biggest undoing.
Even from a mass-appeal point of view, the score offers no surprises and despite some genuinely-catchy tunes like Fevicol Re and Saanson Ne, the overall result is a tad underwhelming. Sajid-Wajid may have stuck to the brief and followed a successful template, but in the bargain, they end up getting trapped in a loop of predictability. Salman Khan's star-power will ensure decent success for most of the tracks - But for an album from the Dabangg franchise, the score is far from fearless, and plays it a little too safe."
