Umesh Mehra saw the original film at a film festival and decided to remake it in Hindi. But he heard Yash Chopra was planning to remake the film with Rishi Kapoor . Umesh Mehra decided to put his plans away. Then by chance he heard that Yash had opted not to make the film and was now making Silsila. Umesh decided to go ahead with his plans. But mid way thru he discovered Basu Chatterjee making Khatta Meeta, which was also a remake of the same foreign film. Umesh spoke to the producers of Khatta Meetha and they didn't want to shelve their film. Umesh decided to work non stop and try to release his film before Khatta Meetha. But Sanjeev Kumar had a heart attack causing the film to get delayed. Then Rakhee Gulzar got ill and the film further was pushed back. Meanwhile Khatta Meetha released and did average business. When Humare Tumhare released it ended up flopping due to Khatta Meetha releasing first.
Anil Kapoor stated he realized he made a huge blunder signing the film. He wanted to lead actor in films and a film like Humare Tumhare would brand him as a character actor.
