Jiban Mrityu marks the second collaboration between Uttam Kumar and Hiren Nag after Thana Theke Aschi (1965); and 12th film of Kumar opposite Supriya Devi as the lead pair. It was a super hit at the box office and ran over for 14 weeks in theatres. Eventually it gained a cult status in the history of Bengali cinema and the mannerism of Shanta Prasad portrayed by Uttam Kumar became popular among the masses.
It was remade in Hindi as Jeevan Mrityu (1970)[2] starring Dharmendra and in Tamil as Sange Muzhangu (1972)[3] starring M. G. Ramachandran. The 1998 Bengali film Asol Nakol starring Lokesh Ghosh, had the same plot inspired from Jiban Mrityu.
