Production
The film started production in 1997 but, due to various delays, was completed and released in 2000. Sunil Shetty was signed for Sharad Kapoor's role but opted out later. Sunny Deol was originally approached to play Sanjay Dutt's role but declined it as he told director Sanjay Gupta that his fans would not like him in a villain role. Rajat Bedi was signed for the film but was later replaced by Parmeet Sethi. Music

All tracks were given by Anu Malik and one song from duo Sajid–Wajid for "Raja Ki Qaid Mein". The song "Kehte Hain Jo Log Ishq Walon Ko Samjhaaye (Jo Dil Rakhta Hai Wo Mauj)" was included in the film at a later stage. However, its sound track and further details are not available. The song was featured in the top 10 shows aired on television at that time. Track listing
