The role of Prakash was originally offered to the director 'Mansoor Khan''s cousin, Aamir Khan; however, Aamir turned down the role because he felt that it was a very small role compared to Shah Rukh Khan's role of Max.
Shah Rukh Khan wore blue contacts in the film in order to look more like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the film.
Salman Khan refused the film as he did not want to play Aishwarya Rai's brother.
The movie was in the making for four years.
