Despite filming having completed and the film cleared by the censor board, the film remains unreleased, although the makers were adamant on a theatrical release only, rather than direct-to-streaming. [14] [15] [16] In July 2023, producer T. Siva revealed that the delay in the film's release was down to the Fijian government's decision to change the subsidy levied on film shoots in the country. He revealed that the team had conducted the shoot with an agreement of a fee concession of 47% but due to the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in Fiji, the process of refunding the money for films shot in the country was suspended. Siva suggested that the amount would not be refunded if the film was released, so he opted to put the film on hold. [17]
