Trivia:
The film won seven Filmfare Awards, including the award for Best Film, Best Director (Rajkumar Santoshi), and Best Actor (Sunny Deol).

At first no producer was willing to back the film because Rajkumar Santoshi had been an assistant to Govind Nihalani. The industry thought Santoshi would make an art house type film.

The film's sequel titled Ghayal: Once Again was released 26 years later in 2016, and was directed by Sunny Deol himself.

Rajkumar Santoshi wrote the film's story keeping Kamal Haasan in mind.
