Durgavati is directed by G Ashoke. It is reportedly the Hindi version of his movie Bhagamathie, which originally starred Anushka Shetty in the lead role. The 2018 horror movie revolved around a woman trapped in a haunted house amidst her interrogation in a corruption case.

The Bhumi Pednekar starring film will be shot at real locations in Madhya Pradesh. She would play the role of an IAS officer in the movie. Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster actress Mahie Gill has also been roped in for the role of a cop in the film produced by Viacom 18.
