The film was released by G. Sundararajan from Poovulagin Nanbargal, a movement focusing on the environment, in the presence of Principal Christianna Singh through a virtual platform. The students said they were inspired by the works of agri-journalist P. Sainath, who documented about the women farmers in India.
