I convey my heartfelt thanks to censor board members as well as to all cast and crew of the film. Those who are waiting to watch the film, they would be able to enjoy it soon.”
Alongside Tisha and Rohan, the film casts Raisul Islam Asad, Mamunur Rashid, Dilara Zaman, Fazlur Rahman Babu, Afroza Banu, Wahida Mallik Jolly, Aruna Biswas and singer Agun, among others.
