The film was Sunil Shetty's second super hit film after his debut Balwaan (1992). The film was panned by critics but the audiences supported the film.
In 1994, Sunil had 4 back to back hits, those are Gopi Kishan, Mohra, Dilwale and Anth.
The film was one of Sunil Shetty's hits in a row in 1994.
In her early days , Somy Ali stated in a interview that she would never star opposite small strugglers like Sunil Shetty. Sunil was hurt by this because he was in Roshan Taneja's acting class with Somy Ali. When Somy signed Anth Sunil Shetty was not a part of the project. When it was offered to him , he flat out refused to work with Somy. After much thought he changed his mind and forgave Somy for her childish comments.
Believe it or not but Sunil Shetty has worked in Anth for a mere 30,000/- as his remuneration. So considerate is Sunil that he refused to accept money paid by producer Ashok Honda on the film's release, towards his remuneration. "You've gone over-budget, keep the money," Sunil and his dad are reported to have told Honda. Why, they even offered to help Honda by lending him money.
