K.Vishwanath and Jackie Shroff and Madhuri first time worked together. K.Vishwanath made this film for T-Series Gulshan Kumar.
Madhuri Dixit had a double role of both mother and daughter in Sangeet. Her sensitive portrayal in Sangeet was appreciated and is considered to be one of her better acting performances.
Madhuri Dixit performed the complex dual characters in Sangeet to perfection. Her acting and dancing was outstanding in the film.
Rediff featured Sangeet in its list of '25 Best Double Roles in Bollywood' saying "While there's never been any lack of acclaim, one of Madhuri Dixit's better performances as a composed but guilt-ridden mother and her blind, trusting daughter estranged by circumstances in K Vishwanath's moving drama deserved much more acknowledgement than it originally did."
Jaya Prada was the original choice for the lead.
