Trivia

The Film was actually an extended music video with few songs which became unexpectedly big hits like 'Subah Subah Jab Khidki Khole' & 'Yaaron Na jaane mujhe kya ho gya...'. Due to this unexpected blockbuster status for those songs, it was decided to convert it into a full-fledged movie. As the idea of expanding an album to a film was never feasible, the film sank without a trace.

The Music was given by a new talent called Tabun. He went on to give music with another composer for Subhash Ghai's 'Yaadein' in 2001.
