Trivia
- The film's title song 'Oh Bewafaa' was sung by Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar, but it was not a major chartbuster like many of their other duets.
- Director Saawan Kumar Tak also wrote the film's story and screenplay, which was common for his melodramatic projects in that era.
- Actress Moushumi Chatterjee, who played the lead, was known for comic roles, making this revenge drama a slight departure for her.
- The movie was released during a period when revenge dramas led by female protagonists were becoming more popular in Hindi cinema.
- The film's climax, involving a dramatic confrontation, was shot in a studio set designed to look like a lavish home.
- Oh Bewafaa did not perform well at the box office, unlike some of Tak's other films from the early 1980s.
- The soundtrack was composed by Bappi Lahiri, who was at the peak of his disco-influenced popularity around that time.
