Trivia

Album

• This was the first of the three films directed by Esmayeel Shroff for which Khayyam composed music. The other two films were "Ahista Ahista" (1981) and "Dil Akhir Dil Hai" (1982).[1][2]
• Rajesh Khanna agreed to make a small appearance in the film "Disco Dancer" (1982) without charging a fee. He did so to return a favour he owed to the film's producer, director B. Subhash. It was Subhash who had recommended Rajesh Khanna to the producers of this film when they were considering Sanjeev Kumar for the lead role. The success of this film helped stabilise Khanna's career at a time when his films were bombing one after the other.[3][4]
• The teenaged pair of Padmini Kolhapure and Sushant Ray worked together again as adults in the film "Jhanjhaar" (1986).[5]

Song

• Hazar Raahen Mud Ke Dekhin - Kishore Kumar had wanted to sing this song without the interludes music director Khayyam had composed. Khayyam had relented when the singer had insisted. However, when this version was recorded, Kishore was not happy with the result and acknowledged his mistake. Khayyam had then told Kishore that the interludes served a purpose. He had included them for the director to show flashbacks of the happier times of the estranged couple who were singing this song.[6]
