The film went on to become the eighth highest grossing Bollywood film of the year.[1] The film was a remake of the 1954 Bengali film Bhanga Gara,[2] which in turn was based on the novel Bijila by Prabhavathi Devi Saraswathi. The Bengali movie was earlier remade in Tamil as Kula Deivam and later remade in Kannada as Jenu Goodu. Pandari Bai reprised her role in all versions except Bengali.
