When the film originally released in 1994, it had made a lifetime collection of Rs 5.15 crore net in India. The worldwide gross collection of the film was Rs 7.59 crore. This number is considered good as it was 30 years ago. Yet, during that time, the film was considered a flop. But director Rajkumar Santoshi had said that the film cannot be called a failure as there were reasons why it had that response at the box office.
He said during a chat with Doordarshan a while ago, "I wouldn’t use harsh words like it was a flop, it wasn’t a flop. It didn’t get the kind of response what we expected. Later, people started liking it. It grew with word of mouth and as it was growing with publicity, it was taken off the theatres because the distributors didn’t have faith in it. They thought it won’t work."
