From January next year to July, the search work will be done on Sati Sadhani with a team of around 6 people to depict the story with accuracy. And based on the research the script will be written. To scrutinize the whole script the scriptwriter will be hired from Bollywood.

Speaking to media, Director Biswajit Bora said " It is grateful for us that we will be making a film on 'Birangana' Sati Sadhani. I was planning the film back in 2017 since I read the particular story and got to know the whole story of Rani Sati Sadhani. However, the movie could not be pursued due to budgetary constraints.

The film is likely to be released in November 2022.
