The show casts Pooja Bhatt, Shahana Goswam, Amruta Subhash and Rahul Bose in pivotal roles, and is created and directed by Alankrita Shrivastava of Lipstick Under My Burkha fame.

Said Shrivastava: "'Bombay Begums' is a story about Indian women that I hope women in India and across the world will connect with.

I hope audiences relate to the characters and find pieces of their own journey reflected in the story," Shrivastava continued.
