Mukesh Ram Prajapati and Sweta Bharti played the lead roles and are a couple in this film. Prajapati said this film deals with a situation that comes in the life of people who works as a labourer. He said live-in relationship is time pass and fun for people of the upper class. “But when labourer class people start living in relationships, a number of problems come in their life which this film had dealt with,” added he.

Prajapati told The Jharkhand Story that when Gauri became pregnant, her live-in partner expressed his happiness but refused her proposal of getting married. The 12-minute film is a story of a woman, her mindset, and her struggle while dealing with the situation which was the outcome of life in a relationship.
