The series marked the debut of Ranjan Chandel as the director known for working on Mukkabaaz (2018) as co-writer and also made his directorial debut with Bamfaad (2020).[3] It is based on the novel Chaurasi by Satya Vyas which portrays the romantic relationship between two couples in the backdrop of 1984 anti-Sikh riots. Chandel stated that I spend most of my time reading literature and poetry from all over the world and as a filmmaker I want to tell stories of the characters who are rooted in Indian soil and I connect with the stories where I find high emotional value.
