Soundtrack
The song 'Tujhsa haseen..' was originally meant for another movie titled 'Zabardast'. However that movie was not made and then Randhir Kapoor requested Pancham Da to give it to him in this movie, as he liked it very much.
Just before the song 'Jeevan me jab aise pal..' there is a scene between Kashmiri man and his son, saying in Kashmiri, "kherishu" means "How are you?" and "varishu" means "I am fine". However, Randhir kapoor tells Tina Munim that it means "I love you" and "I need you". These Kashmiri words are used in the song then by lyricist Gulshan Bawra.
