The film was shot and completed as Kudrat Ka Faisla. After being delayed for years it finally was released with a new name, SADHNA.
The film was titled "Kadardaan" in 1988.
Necomer Meghna was touted as a look alike to Rekha and appeared on a magazine cover. Meghna was the daughter of excise commissioner of Lucknow. Meghna gave a small interview in the Stardust Magazine February 1989. She stated she was involved with Raj Babbar. She was also signed for another Raj Babbar film "Atal Iraada" (She was later replaced and the film got shelved). Raj Babbar denied being involved with her and said she was only a co actor.
Sujata Mehta was banking heavily on the film as she was opposite Rishi Kapoor and Raj Babbar. The film crashed and she was never able to become a huge star.
