Trivia:
This is one of six films that Vinod Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan starred together in, and all their collaborations were quite successful.

Director Prakash Mehra first asked Vinod Khanna to play the role of Ajay. Khanna said he would act in the film only if he was paid Rs 1 lakh more than Amitabh Bachchan was paid. Mehra agreed. Thus Amitabh got Rs 1.5 lakh and Vinod Khanna was paid Rs 2.5 lakh.

Prakash Mehra was keen to cast Feroz Khan and Amitabh Bachchan together. He offered the film to Feroz, but Feroz did not want to work Sunday shifts. Thats when Prakash sought out Vinod Khanna.

Barry White's disco hit " Your my first, My last, My everything" is featured in the film. It appears when Amitabh is in the casino playing cards with Asrani.
