The song 'Neele-Neele Ambar Par' sung by Kishore Kumar in this film became quite popular, but despite this, Kunal Goswami's career came to a halt as soon as it began.
After the film Kalakar, Kunal Goswami did films like Ghunghru (1983), Do Gulab (1983), and Paap Ki Kaami (1990), but these also did not work. After this, he also tried his luck in the 1989 film Aakhri Baazi with Govinda, but none of his films were successful.
