The trailer of Tarla arrived on Friday night and it is trending even hours later. The trailer brings to life the times of noted food writer and late celebrity home chef Tarla Dalal. The trailer showcases Tarla Dalal's journey (played by Huma) - her love story with food and how her dream to pursue it changed her life. The initial bits show that Tarla Dalal had a tough time finding her purpose but once she did, she redefined Indian-styled cooking and how. Tarla Dalal was known for hosting popular cookery TV shows like The Tarla Dalal Show and Cook It Up With Tarla Dalal, she wrote more than 100 cookbooks and was awarded the Padma Shri in 2007. She died in 2013 at the age of 77.
