Story

From ISNA, according to the author of the series, in general, 80 percent of the story, apart from the narrative of Michael Hashemian and Jason Rezaian, was his imagination.[6]

This isn't true that 80 percent of the text was not real, said Arash Ghaderi, author of the series During the Gando press conference. He expressed our work was based on a real case, but we needed a story for drama and storytelling. We had some real cases that we had to connect with each other through stories.[7]

Series title

The serial's name is derived from the Balochi word for Mugger crocodile, a freshwater crocodile whose habitat extends from the Indian subcontinent to Southern Iran.[8]
