Trivia

Album

• For a long time, this was considered director Mahesh Bhatt's last released film. Bhatt himself considered "Zakhm" (1998) to be his last film since he had signed it after this film. However, he made an unexpected comeback after about two decades as the director for "Sadak 2" (2020).[1][2]
• This film was adapted from the French action thriller "Nikita" (1990) directed by Luc Besson. The French film was also remade in English as "Point Of No Return" (1993) starring Bridget Fonda.
• Work on this film had started in 1994. It was put on hold when Sanjay Dutt was jailed for his alleged role in the 1993 Bombay bomb blast case. Work on the film resumed after his release in 1997.

Song

• Wallah Yeh Ladki - Portions of this song seem to have been adapted from the song "Seasons In The Sun". "Seasons In The Sun" itself was an English adaptation of the French song "Le Moribond" by Jacques Brel. It gained popularity with Terry Jacks' 1974 recording and was later covered by Westlife in 1999.[3][4][5]
• Teri Yaad - This song sequence in the film was heavily publicised for its use of computer graphics. Directed by Ken Ghosh, the song was reportedly "done entirely on a computer" and cost around Rs. 1 crore.[6]
• O Rabba - This was the first Hindi film song composed by the British-Indian artist Bally Sagoo.
