“Our generation has to face urban migration very much. The film showcases this aspect of our lives. The story shows a group of friends.

The cinematography has been done by Basudev Chakraborty.

The editor of the film is Sumit Chowdhury.

The cast consists of Vikram Chatterjee, Solanki Roy, Devesh Roy Chowdhury, Sudipa Basu, Rahul Dev Bose, Anamika Chakraborty, and Debopriyo Mukherjee.

Rahul Dev Bose said “Urban migration is faced by most of us. Many of my friends have to go to other cities for jobs. Despite loving the city, they cannot come back as they have limited possibilities in the city. Many of us faced such a crisis. We all have felt the emotions deeply while shooting the film”.
