Production
Development
The show was produced by Alka Kubal Athlye and Sameer Athlye of Kasturisha Arts Production House. The pre-production started in March 2020 and show was about to air from April 2020. Due to COVID-19 Pandemic, the production of the series stopped. After three and half month, the production of the series began in July 2020 and the show was launched on 14 September 2020.
Filming
The show was about to shoot in Thane in March 2020. But due to COVID-19 Pandemic, the production house decided to make Satara, Maharashtra as their production base.[6] [7] On 13 April, Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Uddhav Thackeray announced sudden curfew due to increased COVID-19 cases, while the production halted from 14 April 2021. Hence, the production location was soon shifted temporarily to Goa. Soon in May 2021, the shooting locations were shifted once again to Silvassa, where the story focused on Aarya's pregnancy and Virat's evil plotting against Patils. Later again in June 2021, it returned to its original location in Satara, Maharashtra.
Casting
Prajakta Gaikwad was cast as main lead Aarya Purohit, Goddess Kalubai's devotee.[8] Vivek Sangle was cast opposite her as her husband, Amogh. Alka Kubal reprised the titular role of Goddess Kalubai.

When 22 cast and crew members were tested positive for COVID-19 in the launch week of the show, Ashalata Wabgaonkar also tested positive and passed away in late-September 2020.[11] Later Shakuntala Nare was roped in as Vasundhara Aaji in early October 2020. But due to her health issues, she quit the show and later Smita Oak replaced her in the show.
In late October 2020, lead actress Prajakta Gaikwad quit the series. Soon in November 2020, Veena Jagtap stepped into the role of Aarya and was well received by the audience.[12] In late March 2021, Veena Jagtap quit the series due to her deteriorating health and was eventually replaced by Rashmi Anpat as Aarya.[13] Sangram Salvi playing Milind and Janhavi Killekar playing Malti quit the series in April 2021 and June 2021 respectively due to end of their character.
