 This Movie was made on such a shoestring budget that Nasseruddin  Shah, the most well known actor was paid only Rs 15,000 ($300) for  the movie. Naseer also had to bring his own Nikon camera to the  shootings to use as a prop for his character, who was a  photographer. Towards the end of the shooting, this camera was  stolen, which amongst other painful memories of the making of the  film, Naseer still reminisces about!
