N. Mayekar Nominated Best Supporting Actor – Om Puri Remakes Below is a table of the lead characters in the story of Ghayal and its remakes. Trivia The film's release clashed with that of Dil on the same day. Dil initially led, but Ghayal had a large repeat audience as Sunny Deol had become a famous action hero by 1991. It has rare feat of collecting more in the second week of its release than in the first week in the Mumbai circuit. By the end of its full run, Ghayal collected more than Dil in many circuits. However, Dil turned out to be the highest-grosser of the year, and Ghayal became the second highest-grosser of the year. Originally, the film was offered to Mithun Chakraborty who had signed to play the lead. Dharmendra, who decided to produce the movie, personally asked Chakraborty if he could step down and allow Dharmendra's son Sunny Deol to feature in the film. Chakraborty did out of his friendship and respect for Dharmendra. Sequel A sequel named Ghayal Returns was announced in 2014. But before the film could enter production, it faced financial problems. However, Sunny Deol stated that he was determined to make the film. After once being stalled and then being postponed several times, the film was finally released with the title, Ghayal: Once Again, on 5 February 2016.
