Trivia
- The film's title 'Hawa' means 'wind' in Hindi, referring to the invisible force haunting the family.
- Director Guddu Dhanoa is better known for action films like 'Ziddi' but tried horror with this movie.
- It was shot partly in Mauritius, using its lush forests to create an isolated, eerie setting.
- The movie features Tabu's brother, Makarand Deshpande, in a supporting role as the family's helper.
- Despite its horror theme, the film includes a song sequence with actress Raveena Tandon in a special appearance.
- The special effects for the invisible attacks were done using basic wire work and camera tricks, common for early 2000s Bollywood.
- It underperformed at the box office, leading to fewer horror attempts from the director afterward.
