Trivia

  • The film's title 'Lootmaar' was inspired by a popular slang term in the 1970s for a daring robber.
  • Dev Anand filmed several scenes in the remote hill stations of Himachal Pradesh, which was uncommon for Bollywood at the time.
  • The movie's soundtrack, composed by Rajesh Roshan, includes a song that was later reused in another film due to its initial low popularity.
  • A young actor named Shashi Kapoor was initially considered for the lead role before Dev Anand decided to star in it himself.
  • The locket used as a key clue in the plot was a custom-made prop, not a common jewelry piece from that era.
  • Despite being an action thriller, the film faced censorship delays for its depiction of bank robbery and police violence.
  • Box office reports suggest 'Lootmaar' had a moderate opening but gained a cult following on television reruns in the late 1980s.
