“All of my actors are making their debut with this movie. I firmly believe the social message in the film will be loved by the people,” Boro said.

“In the movie, I have tried to address a wide range of social issues as the film focusses on issues like unemployment, witch-hunting, the effect of bandhs on people’s lives, and hyper-local politics,” he added.

“Since movies cater to a wider mass, hence I believe it is a better medium to mould public. People of Assam, especially here in BTAD, will be able to relate to the issues portrayed in the movie,” he further said.

In a small function, the poster of the movie was also released and the actors interacted with the journalists and movie lovers present on the occasion.
