Upon its original black and white release in 1957, Naya Daur was a tremendous success at the box office and became the second highest grossing film of 1957 behind the critically acclaimed Mother India. Naya Daur's massive success and cult following over the years prompted an effort to colorize the film. It was colorized and re-released in 2007.
Songs from the film became a rage throughout the country, instilling national pride in people's minds. The song, “Yeh Desh Hai Veer Jawanon Ka” sung by Mohammed Rafi is regarded as an all time classic and is fondly remembered and played till today. Another song, “Saathi Haath Badhana” sung by Mohammed Rafi went on to become a chart topper as well.

Naya Daur was involved in a highly controversial and widely publicized court case during its production. Initially, actress Madhubala was cast as the female lead and had been given an advance payment for the role. She was later sued by B. R. Chopra for the advance received as her apprehensions of traveling to outdoor locations where the film was to be shot had stalled the film. B.R. Chopra replaced Madhubala with actress Vyjayanthimala and the film went on to become a tremendous success.
