The film was later remade into the Telugu film Bhale Abbayilu (1969).

The film contains the popular Hindi song Aage Bhi Jaane Na Tu sung by Asha Bhosle, besides the famous Ae Meri Zohra Jabeen, sung by Manna Dey and composed by Ravi and picturised on Balraj Sahni and Achala Sachdev. Waqt also showcases some of the top dialogues in the history of Bollywood movies. Raaj Kumar's Jinke apne ghar sheeshay ke hon, woh dusron par pathar nahi phenka karte (Those whose own houses are made of glass do not throw stones at others) and Yeh bachon ke khelne ki cheez nahi, haath kat jaye toh khoon nikal aata hai (This is not a child's plaything. If the hand is slashed, blood oozes out) are remembered even today.

Asha Bhosle (Marathi: आशा भोंसले) (born September 8, 1933) is an Indian singer. She is best known as a Bollywood playback singer, although she has a much wider repertoire. Her career started in 1943 and has spanned over six decades. She has done playback singing for over 1000 Bollywood movies and sold many records. She is the sister of the equally accomplished Lata Mangeshkar.

Asha Bhosle has won seven Filmfare Best Female Playback Awards out of 18 nominations. She won her first two awards in 1967 and 1968, when Lata Mangeshkar still used to accept the award (Mangeshkar asked not to be considered for the award nominations after 1969 to promote new talent). After receiving the award in 1979, Bhosle emulated her elder sister and requested that her name not be considered for the nominations hereafter. Despite this, Bhosle is the most frequent winner of this award to date, tying with Alka Yagnik.

Asha has won numerous other awards, some of which include: * 1987: Nightingale Of Asia Award (from the IndoPak Association, UK). * 1989: Lata Mangeshkar Award (Government of Madhya Pradesh). * 1997: Screen Videocon Award (for the album Jaanam Samajha Karo). * 1997: MTV Award (for the album Jaanam Samajha Karo). * 1997: Channel V Award (for the album Jaanam Samjha Karo). * 1998: Dayawati Modi Award. * 1999: Lata Mangeshkar Award (Government of Maharashtra) * 2000: Singer of the Millennium (Dubai). * 2000: Zee Gold Bollywood Award (for Mujhe Rang De from Thakshak). * 2001: MTV Award (for Kambakht Ishq). * 2002: BBC Lifetime Achievement Award (presented by the UK Prime Minister Tony Blair). * 2002: Zee Cine Award for Best Playback Singer - Female (for Radha Kaise Na Jale from Lagaan). * 2002: Zee Cine Special Award for Hall of Fame. * 2002: Screen Videocon Award (for Radha Kaise Na Jale from Lagaan). * 2002: Sansui Movie Award (for Radha Kaise Na Jale from Lagaan). * 2003: Swaralaya Yesudas Award for outstanding contributions to Indian music. * 2004: Living Legend Award by the Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry. * 2005: MTV Immies, Best Female Pop Act for Aaj Jaane Ki Zid Na Karo. * 2005: Most Stylish People in Music.

Honours and recognitions; * In 1997, Asha became the first Indian singer to be nominated for the Grammy Award, for Legacy, an album with Ustad Ali Akbar Khan. * She was honoured with the Padma Vibhushan by the Government of India.

Asha Bhosle received Padma Vibhushan from President Pratibha Patil on Monday May 5, 2008.

What a way to take on the life. Jo bhi hai bas yahi ek pal hai. Aage bhi jaane na tu peeche bhi jaane na tu. Aane aur beete hue kal ke baare mein sochna bekar hai mere bhai. Jo bhi hai bas yahee ek pal hai. Kya gaane ke boal hain. Kya music hai aur Kya Asha Ji ne jaan daali hai. Ashaji JINDABAAD-JINDABAD. Ham tau saari zindagi apne ko aapka ghulam maanege.Butch-Lodhi Road.
