The series is produced by Santketan Films and directed by Kapil Kaustubh Sharma. The series has a stellar cast that includes Zeenat Aman, Suchitra Krishna Moorthy, Kitu Gidwani, Pallavi Joshi, Ankit Bhardwaj.

When called Shilpa, she confirmed the news and said, “I am excited to be a part of this project. It has an amazing script and a stellar cast. Actors like Zeenat ji, Kitu ji, Pallavi ji, who I have watched perform amazingly on-screen, now I get a chance to work with them. I feel privileged. I am going to play a very different character of a bindass cop who will be using slang. It was challenging for me as I don’t use slang and I am not conformable with it. However, the character is very strong and I wanted to try something new. I hope the audience likes it.”
