Sunil Dutt career was taking a set back in 70s with this film his career boosted again.
Sadhana and her husband made the film Yeh Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hain. The film was a financial disaster. It put R.K. Nayyar in debt. Usually when a film flops so badly the distributors just want their invest back with no interest. They forego all interest due to them and accept the principle amount. But since Sadhana was the producer they felt she had lots of money. The distributors refused to show any amount of consideration. When R.K.Nayyar next film Intequam became a hit, they thought it would help them out financially. It did not in any way . When they paid 27 lakhs to the distributors they said that was only for the amount of interest that had built up.. The principle amount owing for Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hain was still owing !!. R.K. Nayyar snapped and declared himself insolvent. He directed Geeta Mera Naam and got Sadhana to put her name as the director. Sadhana did not even direct a single shot in the film. R.K.Nayyar could not put his name as the director of the film for legal reasons. When Geeta Mera Naam became a block buster it finally pulled them into a good place financially.
Sunil Dutt's role was originally meant for Prem Chopra. But R.K.Nayyar decided to cast Sunil Dutt to get more money from the distributors.
Sadhna is credited as Sadhna in acting credits and Sadhna Nayyar in director credits.
Only film of Sadhna where she played an action packed glamorous character.
