This film Was originally to have Dev Anand in the leading role, but after he opted out, Shammi Kapoor was cast instead, after the producer suggested him to director Nasir Hussain. Tumsa Nahin Dekha is a 1957 film produced by Sashadhar Mukherjee for Filmistan- the breakaway studio formed by some old Bombay Talkies hands like Sashadhar. The film marked Nasir Hussain's evolution into a director. He had written films like Munimjee and Paying Guest. This is film he wrote and directed. The film was conceived as a star vehicle for its heroine Ameeta, who was the protégée of Filmistan Studios owner Tolaram Jalan. After years of supporting roles, he relaunched her with Tumsa Nahin Dekha. The film was made with the primary focus on promoting Ameeta as a star and much care was taken with her make-up, wardrobe and lighting. Much of the films extensive publicity was also built around the actress. Ironically, the film's huge success at the box office, made the then, struggling Shammi Kapoor, an overnight sensation instead. This was the film where he developed his own individual look and youthful style and was his first lighthearted musical and its success helped move him to acting in this genre. The film also stars the popular villain and character actor Pran. Its music is by O.P. Nayyar and lyrics by Majrooh Sultanpuri. The film was originally offered to Dev Anand but he declined due to Amita and Shammi Kapoor came in his place. The film's original lyricist was Sahir who wrote the title song but he too opted out and Majrooh took his place.

He asks his wife, Kamla, to send their son, Shankar, so that he can employ him and get him married to Meena. Shankar arrives and he is welcomed by Sardar who employs him and introduces him to Meena. A few days another young man shows up at his door claiming that he is Kamla's son.
