Trivia

• The film's title 'Anand aur Anand' refers to the two lead characters, both named Anand, played by Dev Anand and Sanjeev Kumar.
• This was the only film where Dev Anand directed his brother Vijay Anand, who played a supporting role.
• The film's music was composed by R.D. Burman, but it did not produce any major hit songs, which was rare for a Dev Anand film of that era.
• It was one of the few films where actress Shabana Azmi and actor Sanjeev Kumar worked together post their real-life separation.
• The movie's plot dealing with infertility and extramarital pregnancy was considered bold for mainstream Hindi cinema in the early 1980s.
• Dev Anand cast newcomer Simple Kapadia, the sister of actress Dimple Kapadia, in a key role.
• The film performed poorly at the box office, contributing to a rough phase in Dev Anand's career as a director-producer.
