Two generations of the Kapoor family featured in the film - Rishi Kapoor and his great-uncle (the brother of his grandfather Prithviraj Kapoor) Trilok Kapoor.
During the shooting of this film Rishi Kapoor and Moushumi did not get along with each other which created shooting delays. The only other movie they were acting together at the time, Aan aur Shaan was also delayed due to their feuding and could only release four years later. However 20 years later when Rishi Kapoor turned director with Aa ab laut chale he signed Moushumi to act in the film and all was well.
This film was delayed because Rishi & Moushumi were not giving dates. When director Raj Khosla was shooting Sanjay Dutt's Rocky, he considered replacing Moushumi with Tina Munim but the movie was more than half complete and it would not have been financially feasible.
The film was to star Rajesh Khanna and Bhavana Bhatt. They were replaced for unknown reasons.
When the film was started in 1976, it was titled "Balyogi" with Prem Nath and Vikram also in the cast. They later were replaced by Om Prakash and Roopesh Kumar.
