The cast includes B V Shrunga, Bijou Thaangjam, Jimpa Sangpo Bhutia, Harini Sundararajan, Victor Thoudam, Nityashree, Padmaja Rao, Hirock Sonowal, and Tomthin Thokchom.
Produced by Deep Bhimajiyani and Sudha Nambiar under the Metanoia Studios banner, the film features music by Siddhanth Sundar, with background scores by Kaizad Gherda and Rooshin Dalal. In the lead-up to the release, a couple of songs from the film have been presented, starting with “Beedhi Naayi” last week.
The movie is scheduled for a theatrical release on June 21.
