Delivery-girl Banni is a feisty young woman who makes a living out of her catering and door-to-door food delivery business. She soon crosses paths with Yuvan, a mentally disabled man whom she eventually marries as a compromise. The show follows how Banni protects Yuvan from her in-laws who kept torturing him mentally and physically for years and also how she explores his musical talent and decides to make him a rockstar despite his mental illness.
Agastya, a rockstar, enters their lives initially as a storm but later ends up falling for Banni. Yuvan’s childhood friend, Tulika, too returns, who loves and is loved by Kabir (Yuvan’s split personality).
With Yuvan suffering from split personality disorder, the three of them aim to cure him, holding back their emotions just for Yuvan and Banni’s happiness and union.
Ulka Gupta was cast as Banni Chow. This show also marks her return after a six-year hiatus. Talking about her comeback on the small screen, Ulka says, "It was a completely natural process that I let myself flow with. After doing a couple of movies in Bollywood and down south, 'Banni Chow Home Delivery' was one of the right opportunities I decided to make my comeback with."[4]
Ayush Anand was roped in for a pivotal role.[5] Aamir Khan’s sister, Nikhat Khan also made her television debut through the same.[6]
Arjit Taneja was roped in to play Rockstar Agastya Kapoor.[7] Speaking on the same, he said, "I was looking for something that could challenge me as an actor and the Banni Chow offer came at the right time. I will have a grand entry as a rockstar and it will bring along a lot of mystery and suspense."[8]
Riya Sharma was cast to play Dr. Tulika.[9] On her entrance, she said, "I am very excited to be a part of the show as well as a bit nervous as Banni and Yuvan have great chemistry. And I am enjoying it as much as the audience does. I know people will go crazy seeing me between these two lovely love birds and wonder who is coming between them and why is she coming, but the story goes on for the audience."[10]
The show suffered a change in time slot from 9pm to 6:30pm from 2 November 2022 onward. Speaking on this the producer, Sumeet Mittal, said, "Honestly, we are not disappointed. We agree that there were higher expectations in terms of ratings from a show that aired at 9pm. We are now working towards getting a good viewership in the new time slot."[11]
The first promo was unveiled in February 2022 starring Ulka Gupta as Banni.
The cast of Banni Chow Home Delivery participated in Ravivaar With Star Parivaar, a musical competition wherein eight StarPlus shows competed against each other to win the title of "Best Parivaar".[12][13] Banni Chow Home Delivery emerged as the 5th runner-up of the show.
