It was released in the same year as Himmatwala, Sridevi's breakthrough film in Bollywood, but unlike the former, Kalaakaar was a box office disappointment. It is a remake of the 1982 Tamil Film Payanangal Mudivathillai.

Despite the film's failure, its soundtrack by Kalyanji–Anandji was successful, especially the first track "Neele Neele Ambar Par" sung by Kishore Kumar & Sadhana Sargam. According to music expert Rajesh Subramanian, the guitar piece in the song was played by veteran guitarist Sunil Kaushik. It is a remake of Tamil Song "Ilaya nila pozhigirathe" composed by Ilayaraja for Payanangal Mudivathillai.
