The film got shelved after completing 50 percent as it was similar to the story was similar to that of Subash Ghai's Karz 1980.
Recaination was the subject of Chetan Anand's Kudrat, Subhash Ghai's Karz and Sunil Sikand"s Karishma. Both Kudrat & Karz were successful. Even if Karishma was made it might also be successful as Kudrat & Karz. Incidentally all 3 films their tittles begin with "K"
Pran's son Sunil Sikand was to make his film Debut as a director.
Karishmaa was launched in 1979.
3 reels of film were complete but no songs were recorded.
