The previous year (1992) Saajan was released in re run showing's since the film already released onto home video. Dil Tera Aashiq and Chandra Mukhi were released on the same day and were the first brand new films of Salman Khan to release in theater's in Canada.
The song " Tune Pakdi Kallai" was first shot with 1980s actress Kim. The clip was even released in the movie's theatrical trailer's months before the film released. At the last minute, the producer decided to scrap the song and re shoot it with Sri Devi.
Partly inspired by Tom Hank's Big.
The song Tere Dil Ke Baat Main Janoo was edited out of the final version.
First time Sridevi and Salman Khan were paired together.
