Shilpa Shirodkar regretted signing the film after the negative backlash she received for her transparent scene in song Radha Bina Kishan Akela. This movie was the first movie she signed in lead role.
The third remake of Ram Aur Shyam 1967. The other two remakes were Seeta Aur Geeta 1972 & Chaalbaaz 1989. Anil Kapoor's second double role after Yudh 1985.
Amitabh Bachchan was the first choice for the lead role. But he rejected it as he was already playing a double role in Toofan 1989.
Sonu Walia was expecting to sign the second lead role, but that did not happen. In those days she was very close to Rakesh Roshan and thought after Khoon Bhari Maang 1988 Roshan would cast her.
Haiko Haina (Muqaddar Ka Baadshah 1990 -Viju Shah) is a straight lift from The Belle Stars' Iko Iko. Suit Boot Mein Aaya ( Kishan Kanhaiya-Rajesh Roshan) is also a straight lift from the same number.
