Trivia
- This film was released under the title 'Waah! Tera Kya Kehna' in India but was marketed internationally as 'Guru Govinda' to capitalize on the star's popularity.
- The movie features Govinda in a rare double role, playing both the devoted son Raj and the look-alike conman Banne Khan.
- Director Manoj Agrawal had previously worked with Govinda on the 1999 film 'Haseena Maan Jaayegi', which was also a comedy.
- Despite being a comedy, the plot involves themes of family betrayal and a conspiracy to declare a character mentally incompetent, blending drama with humor.
