Trivia
- The film's title is a nod to Amitabh Bachchan's iconic character from 'Mughal-e-Azam', but here it refers to the hero Bheema.
- This was one of the few 1990s action films where the hero, played by Amitabh Bachchan, was not a police officer but an ordinary villager seeking revenge.
- The movie features a cameo by veteran actor Pran, who plays a key supporting role as a wise elder in the village.
- Director K.C. Bokadia was known for making films with strong social messages, and this movie highlighted issues of feudal oppression and justice.
- The soundtrack, composed by Bappi Lahiri, included a popular qawwali song 'Tumse Milne Ko Dil Karta Hai' that became a hit.
- Despite being an action drama, the film performed moderately at the box office and is less remembered compared to other Amitabh Bachchan films of the era.
- The film's climax, involving a dramatic confrontation, was shot in a single schedule over several days in a rural set built in Maharashtra.
