 This was an attempt by Rai at directing a romantic drama, a change from his previous action films.The film failed at the box office and Rai returned to the action genre with his next film "Asambhav" (2004), again starring Arjun Rampal, which also failed to do well.Shortly after the release of "Asambhav" his father died at the age of 80 of a prolonged illness.
