Trivia:
A then-unknown Asha Parekh was a big fan of Vyjayanthimala and was thrilled to share a dance number and a comedy scene with her in the movie.

The hit song "Eena Meena Deeka" was covered by Timid Tiger and Goldspot. It was also covered in the film Bluffmaster as "Indi Yarn" by Trickbaby.

"Eena Meena Deeka" was used as background music for an advertising campaign by the JWT agency of London for the UK bank HSBC in October 2008.
