Production

This prestigious production was to be India's first full-length feature in Technicolor. The film was made with an extremely large budget. Dilip Kumar,

Nimmi and Prem Nath, then at the height of their popularity and success, were quickly signed on for starring roles, but the second female lead proved more troublesome to cast. Initially, Nargis was cast but left the film to concentrate on her association with R. K. Studios.

When a first edit of the film was shown to the film's financiers and distributors, they objected that Nimmi's character died too early. This was due to Nimmi's vast popularity as an actress. Therefore, a lavish and extended dream sequence was filmed and edited in to give Nimmi more prominence and screen time in the film.

The production cost of the film was ₹35 lakh (equivalent to ₹40 crore or US$4.2 million in 2026). It was the most expensive Indian film ever at the time.
