Sanjeev Kumar felt the movie going wrong, but knew Basu would not listen to him.
Tumhare Liye was the first film Sanjeev Kumar returned to after his first heart attack.
When the film flopped,Basu Chatterjee and Raj Tilak passed the blame on each other. The media reported that Raj Tilak forced Basu to sign Vidya despite her not suiting the role. Raj Tilak claimed that Vidya was Basu's selection and he simply went with his vision on film.
