Creator Nida Manzoor explicitly framed the project as a deliberate counter to stereotypes of Muslim women as oppressed or joyless victims, drawing from her own experience and a writers' room of Muslim women to emphasize agency, humor, and unorthodox expressions of faith through provocative song titles like "Ain't No One Gonna Honour Kill My Sister But Me" and "Voldemort Under My Headscarf." The narrative follows Amina (a headscarf-wearing PhD student torn between suitors and the band), Saira (the rebellious founder), Ayesha (who begins a queer arc with an influencer girlfriend), Bisma (a Black Muslim bassist), and niqab-wearing manager Momtaz, making intersectional Muslim womanhood and subversion of traditional norms the core emotional and thematic engine across all six episodes.
