Production

Rang marked the directorial debut of Talat Jani. He was additionally credited for providing the story. Divya Bharti, the leading actress of the film, died shortly after filming was completed; the film was released three months after her death, posthumously. Karisma Kapoor had initially been selected for the main lead role, after producer Mansoor Ahmed Siddique expressed his desire on casting her.

Kamal Sadanah, who had made his debut with Bekhudi, was signed for the male lead; he was the first person to be selected. Actor Jeetendra had completed shooting his scenes, but on learning from his manager that the producer had not paid his due salary, refrained from dubbing for his character. Rather than convincing him to do the same, the makers hired a dubbing artisté to dub his voice.
