Trivia
Dharmendra produced this movie as a launch pad for his nephew Abhay Deol. Dharmendra earlier had successfully launched both his sons Sunny Deol in Betaab and Bobby Deol in Barsaat. Both these movies were commercial hits but he couldn't repeat the same success with Abhay. Though the movie didn't do good at the box office, it has since gained a cult following.

A very light hearted and straight forward movie, Socha Naa Tha might have crashed at the box-office. But it touches hearts in a way that not many movies do. Director Imtiaz Ali has directed a wonderful plot which is very usual in any Indian household. The chemistry between the couple is very naturally presented. I had fallen in love with this movie instantly. The lyrics of the songs may seem vague at first. But they relate and amalgamate to situations so appropriately. The dialogues are very 'day to day'... which contribute that the movie is not out of this world. I would say it is a better movie than Jab We Met, the second movie by Imtiaz Ali.
