Production

Sohail Khan initially wanted Aamir Khan for Sanjay Kapoor's role, but he declined it for unknown reasons. Then Sohail Khan approached Sanjay Dutt for the role, but he was busy with Daud at that time. Sunny Deol was too approached for the role along with Sanjay Dutt. Kajol was offered the female lead, but declined. Shilpa Shetty bagged the role.

Soundtrack

The film's soundtrack album was composed by Anu Malik.

The hit song "I Love You, I Love You" was copied from Pakistani Qawwali singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's "Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo".[2] While he usually tolerated Indian music directors like Anu Malik copying his songs,[2][3] Khan was reportedly aggrieved when Malik turned his spiritual "Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo" into "I Love You, I Love You".[2] Khan said "he has taken my devotional song Allahu and converted it into I love you. He should at least respect my religious songs."[3]
