Trivia

The film opened with a self-deprecatory message from its makers, stating "Respectfully & affectionately this picture is dedicated to those dear friends, comrades and well-wishers who had implicit faith in us... never to complete the picture". The phrase "never to complete this picture" appeared on the screen after a delay following the rest of the message was displayed.

In 1949, producer K. Asif had taken Balraj Sahni to Bombay's Arthur Road Jail to help him prepare for his role as a jailor in this film. The jailor present there showed Sahni around the jail to show him how the prisoners dwelled. As fate would have it, Sahni was soon arrested participating in a Communist Party procession and was detained in Bareilly Jail.

Parikshit Sahni debuted as a child artist with this film. He played the child version of Dilip Kumar's character Kishore and was credited as Junior Balraj after his father Balraj Sahni who, himself was acting in this film. The senior Sahni permitted his son to act in the film on the condition that he would not accept any fee for it.
