The New York Times called it "a most intelligent novel".[2] Film rights were purchased by 20th Century Fox.[3] Lord Bradbourne was assigned to produce, in part because he was son-in-law of Lord Mountbatten, former viceroy of India, and thus had many contacts in that country.[4]
Stewart Granger and Anthony Steel signed to play the lead roles. Filming began in India on 2 January 1958.[5] Hugo Fregonese directed.
