-Co-screenwriter [[P. Vasu]] directed a thematically similar movie called ''[[Love Birds (1996 film)|Love Birds]]'' in 1996 in Tamil. The story line of ''[[Kaho Naa...

The interval twist — where the hero supposedly dies in an accident — and the second half of the movie — where the heroine is sent to her uncle's place to overcome her depression but is shocked to find a lookalike in a vehicle who is also seen later in a discotheque dancing merrily — went on to be used in the Hindi movie ''[[Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai]]''.
