Production
Featuring an ensemble cast of actors, Dil Vil Pyar Vyar was revealed to be India's first retro-musical film and featured fourteen songs of the late music director, R. D. Burman, which formed the main crux of the plot. The producer, Vivek Vaswani, had earlier made Sar Aankhon Par as a tribute to actor Raj Kapoor and revealed that Dil Vil Pyar Vyar, would be followed by a third tribute film for actress Fearless Nadia. The film was shot in late 2001 across Mumbai, with R. Madhavan working on his portions from December 2001. Namrata Shirodkar replaced Mahima Chaudhry in the film's cast and was paired opposite Madhavan.

Release
The film opened to positive reviews, with a critic from Rediff.com adding "it is the manner in which the filmmaker has infused these ordinary stories with passion and poignancy that sets Dil Vil Pyar Vyar apart from every other Hindi movie. Similarly, Planet Bollywood's critics noted that "the idea of Dil Vil Pyar Vyar has been implemented in a workable (and more importantly, watchable) manner and shows that talent and creativity still exists in our oft-inspired industry". Despite earning good reviews, the film did not perform well at the box office. This film was later dubbed and released into Tamil as Kettavarellam Padalam (2005).

Soundtrack
This movie contains several re-arranged hit songs of R.D. Burman sung by singers like Kavita Krishnamurthy, Hariharan, Kumar Sanu, Abhijeet Bhattacharya,  Alka Yagnik, Sadhna Sargam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Babul Supriyo, and Shaan. The re-arrangement was done by Babloo Chakravorty.
