Om Puri, his first film in main lead and also Shafi Inamder and Sadashiv Amrapurkar.are introduced in this film and all of them became successful in commercial film.
Rajkumar Santoshi was an assistant director in this film, after about 6 years later, Rajkumar Santoshi got a break to direct Ghayal.
The entire film was shot as per the script written by Vijay Tendulkar. But during the climax, Govind Nihalani somehow had a different vision than the writer. But Vijay Tendulkar was too senior a person and Govind Nihalani did not want to let him down. So Govind Nihalani shot two ends for the film - one that was written by Vijay Tendulkar in the script and other that was his own vision. He showed both versions to the writer and finally Vijay Tendulkar gave Govind Nihalani consent to retain his own ending.
Its a very unfortunate coincidence that All the leading actors of this movie have passed away, as on 2020. Be it the main lead actors Om Puri and Smita Patil or villain Sadashiv Amrapurkar or the main side character Shafi inamdar, achyut pordar, Amrish Puri.
