 The film, despite being the tenth highest-grosser of 1990, had collections way below its high budget, and thus, the film recorded as a "flop" at the box-office.The film was remade in 2012 with the same title, by Johar's son Karan Johar, as a tribute to his father.This movie seems to have some inspiration from 1983 Al Pacino hit movie "Scarface" .
