The first notable film of Parveen Babi.
Amitabh Bachchan and Parveen Babi's first film together.
Pran and Farida Jalal were nominated for best supporting actor and actress for 1975 Filmfare awards.
Jimmy 2008 starring Mimoh Chakraborthy had borrowed some parts from the film where Mimoh takes the blame of murder case thinking he is about to die.
The film's climax was inspired from the movie Cold Sweat (1970). Majboor even went as far as incorporating actual footage from Cold Sweat in Majboor. The part of the movie where Charles Bronson's car goes off the highway, into the gravel and down a hill. Amitabh was shown driving the same red Corvette as Charles Bronson so they could match the scenes with the original scene in Cold Sweat.
