Development

The film was officially announced on 9 December 2023, along with a poster unveiling. Chorki, Alpha-I Studios and SVF Entertainment announced the deal for the film and presented Domm (with the tagline 'Until the Last Breath') as the title, with Chanchal Chowdhury initially signed on.[5][6]

Casting

Chanchal Chowdhury officially signed on to the film in December 2023.[7] By July 2025, the script was completed and Afran Nisho was signed to star in the film—it was made clear that both Nisho and Chowdhury would star together.[8][9] Puja Cherry officially joined the film at the Muhurat event at the Gulshan Shooting Club in Dhaka on 29 October 2025.[10][11] In January 2026, Dolly Johur joined to play Nisho's mother.[12][13] In February, it was revealed that Zahid Hasan would be playing a guest role.[14][15]

Reception

Bangladeshi entertainment media has highlighted Nisho and Chowdhury's first-time pairing as a major box-office success, citing Nisho's recent success in the films Surongo (2023) and Daagi (2025).[23]

Controversy

Since the release of the teaser of the film Domm, several scenes and settings have been found to be similar to the Malayalam-language Indian film The Goat Life (2024) and the film was considered a remake of it, but director Redoan Rony denied the matter and said that the film is based on a true story and an original story.[24][25]
