This movie was remade as Inteqaam with Sunny Deol and Anil Kapoor as hero in 1988.
During the making of the film it was Shatrughan who was considered the bigger star between he and Vinod. Shatrughan had mostly hype on him due to being a FTII student.
Shatrughan Sinha recommended Subhash Ghai' s name for the film. But Ghai quoted a huge price. Vinod Khanna was then signed.
