It stars Madhuri Dixit and Shah Rukh Khan in lead roles with an ensemble supporting cast including Sudha Chandran, Tinnu Anand, Johnny Lever, Beena Banerjee, Kiran Kumar, Kalpana Iyer and Himani Shivpuri, with Deepak Tijori in a guest appearance. This was the first time that Dixit and Khan were paired together. The film's music was composed by Anand–Milind, with lyrics written by Sameer. The film is about a woman facing the brunt of her obsessive lover. It also focuses on the atrocities committed against women. Dixit plays the protagonist and Khan plays the antagonist. At the 40th Filmfare Awards, Anjaam won Khan the Best Villain award for his performance, after having failed to win the award the previous year for his performance in Yash Chopra's Darr. Moreover, the film also earned Dixit her 7th nomination for Best Actress, but she instead won the award for Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! Khan has bought the rights to this film under his banner, Red Chillies Entertainment. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
