Trivia
- The film was inspired by the 1992 Hollywood thriller 'The Hand That Rocks the Cradle' but adapted into a Hindi romantic thriller setting.
- Juhi Chawla's character was originally offered to another actress but she took the role and performed her own stunts in some scenes.
- The movie marked one of the earliest pairings of Rishi Kapoor and Juhi Chawla as lead actors in a suspense-driven story.
- It was shot extensively in scenic locations in Ooty and Coonoor to create a contrasting peaceful backdrop for the thriller plot.
- The film's climax sequence required special effects that were considered advanced for mid-1990s Bollywood technical standards.
- Despite mixed reviews, the soundtrack by music director Anand-Milind became popular, especially the song 'Tu Meri Zindagi Hai'.
- Director Mustan Burmawalla later said the film was an experiment in blending family drama with psychological thriller elements.
