Trivia:
Paresh Rawal was signed for the film, but the producer replaced him with Akshay Kumar to add to the film's commercial value.

Aishwarya Rai injured her leg in a jeep accident while shooting for the film.

Rajkumar Santoshi had been wanting to make a cop movie with Amitabh Bachchan ever since he was involved as an assistant in Ardh Satya (1983).

Jaya Prada was to play a full-fledged role in the film, but her role was trimmed down to a guest appearance because of her commitment to her sick husband who was in the hospital at the time.
