Due to the producer not being able to get the rights of the "Aag Hi Aag" from Pahlaj Nihalani, the added a extra "A" to the title.
The film did not have theatrical release in British Columbia, Canada.
Out of all the films Mithun Chakraborthy and Jackie Shroff did together, Aaag Hi Aag had the lowest and worst productions values. Cinematography was very weak.
Producer Jawaharlal Bafna, whose Aaag Hi Aag had been released 1999 left his office on Friday (12th March) morning and was since untraceable. His family filed a complaint with the Oshiwara police station but his whereabouts was not known till late Friday night. Bafna's son, Deven, told Information on Friday night at 12.15, "Daddy was feeling very low and dejected since the last 2-3 days. He was unhappy with the behaviour of some of his distributors who took deliveries at reduced prices, saying that he (Jawaharlal Bafna) was in plus, when the fact is that my daddy was in heavy deficit even after all the deliveries were effected." The C.P. Berar distributor did not take delivery. Jawaharlal Bafna, instead of returning home, slept in his office on the night of 11th March (Thursday) after effecting all the deliveries. His Delhi-U.P. distributor was also with him that night. On Friday, he left his office without informing anybody. A hand-written note, found in his drawer, mentioned that he had been honest in his dealings but honesty and sincerity did not pay in life. The note also said that he was not fit for this world, that he was leaving his place and that nobody should try to search for him. A line was also mentioned for Mithun Chakraborty to the effect that he should not loot people. Mithun had allegedly agreed to work in Aaag Hi Aag at a price lower than his market price because Bafna had suffered losses in his earlier film, Dadagiri, which also starred Mithun. But, according to Deven Bafna, "Mithun refused to complete his dubbing unless he was paid more money although the contracted amount had already been paid to him.
