The director of the series, Ashima Chibber, who has previously directed Mere Dad Ki Maruti (2013) for YRF, presents the toilet as a character in itself. In the first webisode, the train toilets is predictably dirty and cluttered but also imparts a sense of false security. Within its shaky walls, the two friends find the serenity to carry on with their illegal activity. In Dingo & Khanna Preggers Or Not? Dingo tries to fix an overflowing commode as Khanna uses test strips to determine her pregnancy. The friends seek solace in the washroom, but it adds to their woes by coughing up one problem after another.

The comedy series captures the bonding of its two actors who, despite their differences, stick together like an odd pair of modern-day suffragettes championing their rights to be accepted as unconventional.
