Trivia

Album

• This film was a remake of the Kannada film "Bhale Jodi" (1970). The Kannada film was also remade in Telugu as "Bullemma Bullodu" (1972). The premise of these films - of two identical twins growing up separately and developing completely different personalities, and then exchanging places - was probably inspired by the Mark Twain novel "The Prince and the Pauper" (1881) which was adapted in Telugu as "Raju Peda" (1954) and in Hindi as "Raja Aur Runk" (1968). The same premise was also used in the Telugu film "Ramudu Bheemudu" (1964) and its remakes - "Enga Veettu Pillai" (1965) in Tamil, "Ram Aur Shyam" (1967) in Hindi, "Ajayanum Vijayanum" (1976) in Malayalam, and "Mojugara Sogasugara" (1995) in Kannada. The Hindi films "Seeta Aur Geeta" (1972) and "Chaalbaaz" (1989), the Telugu film "Ganga Manga" (1973), and the Tamil film "Vani Rani" (1974) adapted this premise for female central characters. "Chaalbaaz" (1989) itself was remade in Kannada as "Rani Maharani" (1990). The Tamil film "Thoongathey Thambi Thoongathey" (1983) and the Hindi film "Kishen Kanhaiya" (1990) also had similar plots.[1][2][3][4][5]
• This was South Indian actress Srividya's first Hindi film appearance.

Song

• Chalte Chalte Peechhe Mud Ke Dekh Zara - The tune of this song's prelude may have inspired a portion of the song "Hum Dono Do Premi" ("Ajanabee", 1974). R.D. Burman also used a similar flute interlude in the song "Raah Pe Rahte Hain" ("Namkeen", 1982).[6][7]
• Saajan Sajna Re Saajan Kahan Jaoongi Main - R.D. Burman had used the tune of this song earlier for a song for his Bengali Pujo album of 1969 - "Phire Esho Anuradha". He had sung the original version himself. The same tune was used in the opening line of "Jahan Pe Sawera Ho Basera Wahin" ("Baseraa", 1981) and also inspired the rest of the song.[8][9]
