Production

Director Chito S. Roño directed many films of different genres, including family dramas and romance, and when it comes to directing films about "separation", he decided to make Separada unique from most films about the said subject.

Sharmaine Arnaiz, who was cast as Sandy in the film, said that she is not concerned or worried about typecasting her as the "mistress," and she admitted that the film relates to her because the separation between Maricel and Edu's respective characters is reminiscent of her parents' separation.
