Although Delwar Jahan Jhantu usually made films in the social and folk genre, he started making romantic films keeping in mind the needs of the audience. In 1981, he named his film after the title of 'Prem Geet', a Bollywood film starring Raj Babbar and Anita Raj, which featured Bappa Raj , Omar Sunny and newcomer Lima in the lead roles. [1]
Although Bapparaj was initially offered the role of Raju in the film, he chose the urban character Vicky. After its release, Omar Sunny's role as the tragic hero was more appreciated. [1]
The film and its songs became very popular in the villages. In particular, the songs 'Sukher Nire Ami Pathhara Pakhi' and 'Amar Surer Sathi Aay Re' composed by music director Anwar Jahan Nantu became very popular and deeply impressed the audience. [1]
