Trivia
- This was one of the few Hindi films set in a contemporary Western genre, a rare style for Bollywood in the early 90s.
- The film's music composer, Anu Malik, reused his own tune 'Tumse Milne Ko Dil Karta Hai' from the 1990 film 'Dil' for a song here.
- Actor Shafi Inamdar, who played Aamir Khan's father, was only about 13 years older than Aamir Khan in real life.
- The movie was released the same year as Aamir Khan's superhit 'Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar', so it got less attention.
- Director S.A. Kader was primarily known for directing Tamil and Telugu films; this was one of his few Hindi directorial ventures.
- The plot involving eloping lovers stumbling upon a dangerous stranger shares similarities with Hollywood thrillers of the era.
- Despite starring popular young stars Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla, the film was not a major commercial success.
