The film was the biggest blockbuster at the box office in 1993.
Chunkey was considered a lucky mascot. He was responsible for the come back hits of Sunny Deol (paap ki duniya), Anil Kapoor (tezaab), and Govinda (Aankhen). It was said Chunkey could help everyone's career but his own!
Three actors Kadar Khan,Govinda and Raj Babbar had a double role in the film.
Divya Bharti was offered the role opposite Chunky Pandey. Divya declined because she wanted the role opposite Govinda. This upset Pahlah Nihalani.
The overseas distributors had zero expectations from the film Aankhen and did not release the movie in theater's in Canada. It went straight to VHS video. All focus was on Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja and how many showings they could fit in the theater's. That film flopped badly and Aankhen became the biggest block buster of 1993.
