The film is produced by Nimu Sherpa, Chongba Lama Sherpa, and Angchhiring Sherpa. Co-producers include Govinda Bohora, Sudip Kunwar, and Ishwar Shrestha.
Rohit Kattel—also a well-known distributor and owner of RR Films—serves as the executive producer.
Mirmire is slated for release in 2082 B.S., though an exact premiere date is yet to be announced. RR Films will handle the distribution.
