      Shabana spotted Anil Kapoor's talent while making the film and introduced him to Javed Akhtar, who in turn recommended him to Ramesh Sippy for Shatranj. For a negative role. The film was later made as Meri Jung by Subhash Ghai. Anil was elevated to the lead role after Amitabh refused it and Javed Jaffrey was signed for the negative role.

    Excellent Plot
    One of the best yest-years movie. This movie has been copied in bits and pieces into various movies like Mann, Chupke Chupke, etc.... but still remains a master piece. Worth a watch if you have'not seen this already. Naveen Nischol proves it again that he can act. Shabana was perfect as usual Madan Puri did a good job Anil Kapoor is a side actor. This is during his struggling days. I wanted to know who played the character of Chutki (chipkali - Aparna) in the movie. She looked like a youngster with a promise. The scene of putting the matchbox in the glass was done very well. Specially because there was no camera trick involved here and I bet out leads would have had to practice a hell lot in order to get it right into the glass. Asking for the specs , the clip was classic and so was the asking for the lighter, case and others. Was Chutki moon moon sen?
