Production

Director duo Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee were inspired to do this film after watching a play called Belaseshe Kolahol, written by Kajal Chakraborty and directed by Sohini Sengupta. Chief Justice Asim Chatterjee, famously known as the Puri Judge, used to solve marital disputes by sending estranged couples to Puri, which served as the main inspiration for the court scene.

The film was shot both in Kolkata and Santiniketan. The house in Santiniketan, where the film was shot, is now a major tourist attraction and is famously called the Belasesher Bari ("The house of Belaseshe"). The shooting of Belasehse was completed in 17 days with a cast of 21 actors. The entire cast and crew stayed in Santiniketan and completed the shooting within a week.
