Shakti Samanta took Ravindra Jain as music composer for this film, for the first time, for a change in Khwab.and then in Ayaash, instead of his regular, R.D.Burman (they were workimg together in 3 other films) also Shakti Samanta, for the first time was working with artists, Nasirudin Shah, Mithun Chakravorty & Ranjeeta.
Remake of A Place in The Sun.
Naseeruddin Shah stated Shaki Samanta kept his distance from him while filming because Shakti was from commercial cinema and Naseeruddin from parallel cinema. They were unable to bond.
When Kishore Kumar found out about Yogita Bali's fondness with Mithun, he demanded Shakti Samanta remove Yogita from the film. When he refused, Kishore Kumar refused to sing any song in the film.
Shakti Samanta stated "I produced the film myself. It starred Mithun and Ranjeeta. They were a hit pair those days. But Khwab didn't work. I don't want to get into a post-mortem. Sometimes things just don't gell. The film also starred Yogeeta Bali. I think her romance with Mithun was kindled on the sets of the film. They got married soon after.".
