RTGM did astoundingly well, Mandakini did a good job, the songs were beautiful. You can't grab every film that comes your way, If a film does well to the magnitude that RTGM did, you do feel that you should have been a part of it. "I was offered Rati Agnihotri's role in Ek Duuje Ke Liye, Rekha's role in Silsila, and Sridevi's role in Tohfa, but I couldn't do them for some reason or the other. Mandakini was eventually cast in the role, but according to Padmini, Raj Kapoor was willing to replace her even after 45 days of shooting.

Padmini said in an interview that she was apprehensive about a kissing scene in the film, which is why she passed on the opportunity. Directed by Raj Kapoor and starring Rajiv Kapoor in the lead role, the film was a box office success. Actor Padmini Kolhapure has said that she has rejected films that eventually went to Rekha, Sridevi and Rati Agnihotri in her career, but she has some regrets about turning down Ram Teri Ganga Maili.
