The film is so rare and unknown Asha Parekh failed to mention it in her 2017 autobiography titled "The Hit Girl". But in a 1978 interview with "Film World" about the film, she does mention that: "I have to age physically - and emotionally - from a teenage girl to an old woman; there are a lot of dances as well."
After Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki, Aakhri Mujra was Asha Parekh's important movie.
The film was originally titled "Saarangi", when the first frame was shot on February 2, 1977.
