Delhi Belly (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack album to the 2011 Hindi-language action comedy film of the same name directed by Abhinay Deo. The film's musical score is composed by Ram Sampath and featured 10 songs with lyrics written by Amitabh Bhattacharya, Akshat Verma, Munna Dhiman, Chetan Shashital and Sampath himself. The soundtrack was released under the Sony Music India label on 27 May 2011.

The initial script of the film had scope for one song, but after the film went through numerous post-production phases, Sampath had composed 10 songs during that period. The lyrics were curated from the expletives provided by Verma to set the tone of the film. Sampath curated punk rock and funk tunes blended with Indian folk influences.

The soundtrack was acclaimed by critics for its experimentation and genre blend, but also met with criticism for the expletive lyrics, especially the promotional number "Bhaag D.K. Bose" which faced massive outrage from people after it was played in theatres and national televisions. Sampath received a nomination for the Best Music Director at the 57th Filmfare Awards among other accolades.
