Speaking about the series, the director shared, "Though the script is yet to be finalised, a lot of work has progressed. The plan is to start shooting by September-October. Chanchal Chowdhury will be well suited to this character. It's impossible to do this character without an actor like Chanchal Chowdhury."

The novel "Gonodebota" was published back in the 1940s, and highlighted the situation of rural Bengal during the British Raj period. Later, Tarasankar Bandyopadhyay also wrote "Panchagram", which is considered to be a part of "Gonodebota".
