According to the public relations of "Masteeshgh", the producer of this film, Mehran Boroumand, announced: The shooting of some short scenes has remained due to the outbreak of Corona virus, and will end as soon as Corona's restrictions are removed and borders are opened. The film is also being edited by Sepideh Abdolvahab, and post-production technical work, including sound, will be done simultaneously in Turkey. Boroumand said: "According to the current situation, our forecast for the time of completion of the project, the end of the technical stages and reaching the ready stage of the screening is the end of summer, but the time of its release depends entirely on the screening situation in Iranian and world cinemas."


However, this film is a joint product and should be screened simultaneously in Iran and Turkey.

"We usually make announcements when we have something important tp share ," said the producer. When the state of the film in the world is not clear, why wait in vain? We are preparing the project, but the decision on the release date will be postponed until reopening and clarification of the state of the world's cinemas, despite Corona's restrictions.
