In what looks like a mystery trailer, Huma's life turns upside down after a group of fanatics takes her daughter away, while a slogan 'Hail Aryavarta' is quite recurring in the clip.
The trailer also makes it evident that Qureshi married a person out of her caste and the government takes away the children born to such couples. 'Project Balee' is what will keep the viewers on their toes as it comes as the surprise element towards the end of the clip.

'Leila' is being helmed by much-acclaimed director Deepa Mehta, Shanker Raman and Pawan Kumar.
Mehta, who is known for the critically appreciated trilogy 'Fire', 'Earth' and 'Water', is also the creative executive producer of the show.
The upcoming Netflix series is based on a book by journalist Prayaag Akbar, based on a mother's hunt for her lost daughter.
Netflix recently unveiled a bunch of original series and feature films for its Indian market including 'Sacred Games', 'Typewriter', 'Bulbul' and 'Chopsticks'.
Huma was last seen in 'Kaala' in which she starred opposite superstar Rajinikanth.
