Speaking about the show, director Ameet Guptha said, "Bakaiti was born out of the kind of conversations we have all had around dining tables and on terrace steps—about space, sacrifice, and the quiet resilience that defines every Indian household.” The show also features Tanya Sharma and Aditya Shukla in pivotal roles.
