Trivia:
The film was released in 1971, two years after the heroine Madhubala died.

This is the only film that Madhubala starred in that is completely shot in color. Her most famous film Mughal-e-Azam (1961) has some color sequences, but that film was mostly shot in black-and-white.

Leading lady Madhubala fell ill during filming. The film was shelved for a decade. After her death in 1969, filming resumed with various actresses doubling for Madhubala. The film was finally released in 1971 and wasn't a hit.

Before she became a star, Asha Parekh played a supporting role sharing scenes with heroine Madhubala. A decade later, when Madhubala died, Asha attended her funeral and paid her last respects.

Upon the film's release, leading man Sunil Dutt asked that film posters reflect Madhubala's seniority over him by giving her top billing, even though she was long dead.
