The casting of the second lead character proved rather tricky. Mehul had seen Prahaar and wanted Nana. The produced Dinesh Gandhi said Nana and Raaj Kumar would not get along and problems would occur. Dinesh feared the film being incomplete due to this. Mehul called Nana and offered him the film. Nana said he does not do commercial films. Mehul said he would narrate the film to him at his place and then he should decide. Mehul went over and narrated the film. He told Nana he had 14 scenes in the film. Nana told Mehul to promise him those scenes would not be cut out in the final edit. Nana Patekar then warned Mehul that if Raaj Kumar interfered in the film in any way he would leave the film and stop shooting. He would not care if the film would be incomplete. Mehul promised Nana that Raaj Kumar would not interfere in any way. Mehul then phoned Raaj Kumar and informed him that Nana Patekar had agreed for the other role. Raaj Kumar was upset. He told Mehul that he heard Nana Patekar had a temper and would swear and yell on the sets. Mehul told Raaj Kumar that Nana seemed like a decent fellow and perhaps he had a slight temper.Mehul then told Raaj Kumar that Nana stated that if he interfered with the film , he would quit the film right away . Raaj Kumar promised there would be no problems on his end. The shooting then went off smoothly.
