Trivia

Amitabh returned to negative roles with this film, after playing a villian many years back in Parwana (1971) and Gehri Chaal (1973) and to some extent in Don (1978).

The original title of the movie was "All The Best", but while in production, the filmmakers decided to change it to a Hindi title, believing that an English title wouldn't be so appealing to the Indian audience.

Bipasha Basu had a larger role, but her scenes were edited out, leaving her with just a special appearance in one of the songs.

Goofs

Vijay Rajput no doubt has some sort of psychological problem, but it is definitely not schizophrenia.

Share this

When Vijay admits to Vishwas that he has personally overseen the entire scheme, he utters, in Sanskrit, "Tatra, yatra, sarvatra!", which is the meaningless phrase "There, where, everywhere!" The correct phrase in this context is "Atra, tatra, sarvatra!", which means "Here, there, everywhere!"
