Abhay is an excellent film from the time when such films weren't made at all! Please do watch it!
The soundtrack of the original Hindi version is better than the Telugu audio, but the Telugu soundtrack is spoiled by the unintentionally funny and rather laughable dubbing. The dubbing is genuinely so funny that it also degrades the mood of the tracks.
If you want to enjoy this sound, better listen to the Hindi version (which I rated 3/5). This Telugu soundtrack, rather dubbed soundtrack, deserves 1.5/5 which I am giving it only because of the respect for the original album.

The film was first announced with Kamal Haasan and Simran in lead roles with Bollywood actress Rani Mukherji in a special appearance. But later Simran and Rani decided to leave the project due to the delay in its launch.
Actor Jayam Ravi worked as an assistant director for this film.
The film was an inspiration for the animated sequence involving fight scenes and violence in the Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill (2003).
