Director Bijon praised Intekhab Dinar’s performance, saying, “Some actors go deep into a character over time. Dinar Bhai can enter the character instantly, like flipping a switch. I’m thrilled he’s getting recognition both at home and abroad. He truly deserves it.”
The film explores the hidden truths we lock away in ourselves and the consequences when the Pandora’s box unexpectedly opens.
Alongside Dinar, the cast includes Hasnat Ripon, Moutushi Biswas and Tanushree, with cinematography by Ejaz Mehedi, costume design by Idila Farid Turin and sound design by Anis John from India.
