It was produced by Abdul Aziz and Irrfan Khan under the banner of Jaaz Multimedia and Irrfan Khan Films. It stars Irrfan Khan, Nusrat Imrose Tisha, Rokeya Prachy and Parno Mittra. The story builds up around the members of two families discovering the finer fabric of love when the headman of a family dies. The theme of the film is that death doesn't always take things away, sometimes it gives back.
Principal photography on the film began on March 2016 in Dhaka. Filming locations include Chittagong Hill Tracts, Sylhet, and Dhaka. On March 17, 2016, Irrfan Khan arrived in Dhaka, Bangladesh to scout for filming locations of the upcoming film. Internationally acclaimed director Farooki describes the film as a family story of loss and regain. Regarding the film Khan said, "When I saw his first film 'Ant Story', it immediately got me interested. I was impressed with his approach, style, and the way he unravels the story ... His works carry a strong humane angle, which is why his characters are multi layered."
Bollywood Actor Irrfan Khan was roped in to play the lead role in the film opposite Nusrat Imrose Tisha. Rokeya Prachy and Parno Mittra was later joined the film in a supporting role. The film marks Khan's 10th international film.
On February 16, 2017, the Ministry of Information halted the film's "no-objection" certificate. Earlier, writer Humayun Ahmed's wife Meher Afroz Shaon had brought to the government's notice that a part of the film resembles a period of her deceased husband's life.
