Trivia
- This was Ajay Devgn's debut film, and he performed the famous split-on-two-bikes stunt himself without a body double.
- The film's title 'Phool Aur Kaante' translates to 'Flowers and Thorns', symbolising the dual nature of love and danger in the story.
- It introduced the popular 'Aaja Meri Gaadi Mein Baith Ja' song, which became a major chartbuster and is still remembered for its playful vibe.
- Director Kuku Kohli was primarily a cinematographer before this; it was his first and only major directorial success in Hindi cinema.
- The movie was a surprise box office hit, establishing Ajay Devgn as an action hero and launching his long career.
- Madhoo, the female lead, was reportedly cast partly because of her resemblance to actress Madhuri Dixit, who was very popular at the time.
- The film's climax, involving a rescue in a warehouse, helped set a template for many 1990s action dramas in Bollywood.
