Trivia

• This was one of the earliest films where actor Anil Kapoor played a significant supporting role, before his rise to leading man status.
• The movie features a cameo appearance by veteran actor Ashok Kumar, who plays a small but pivotal role as a doctor.
• Music director R.D. Burman composed the songs, but the film's soundtrack did not achieve the same massive popularity as some of his other 1980s works.
• The plot's central conflict involving a marriage of convenience and a past love was considered quite bold for mainstream Hindi cinema at the time.
