For the segment Ruqyah, the screenwriter, Mahdi Ahmed along with director Abdulla Muaz visited a one-room apartment to discuss how the narrative could be spread visually inside the premise. The entire segment was filmed inside this apartment.[1] Initially, the director cast two other actors for the leading role, however due to their scheduling conflict, Muaz later roped in the two off-screen sisters, Aishath Rishmy and Mariyam Azza for their respective roles.[1][2][3]
