Huma Qureshi to play famous chef Tarla Dalal in new biopic
Huma Qureshi in the poster of 'Tarla'
The first look of 'Tarla' was unveiled on Tuesday with Huma Quereshi playing the titular role.
The film is based on India's famous chef Tarla Dalal's life and Qureshi has undergone physical changes to look the part.
The first poster features Qureshi wearing prosthetic teeth,specs and a short hairdo to look her part.
Excited about bringing the achievements of Tarla Dalal to the big screen, Huma said, "Tarla Dalal reminds me of my childhood. My mom had a copy of her book in the kitchen and would often try many of her recipes for my school tiffin. I also clearly remember the time when I helped mom make Tarla's homemade mango ice cream. This role has taken me back to those sweet childhood memories and I am very thankful to Ronnie, Ashwini and Nitesh for having faith in me to play this awe-inspiring character."
'Tarla' is being directed by Piyush Gupta and produced by Ronnie Screwvala, Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, and Nitesh Tiwari.
Tarla Dalal was an Indian food writer, chef, cookbook author, and host of cooking shows.
She was the first Indian to have been awarded a Padmashree in the culinary skills category in 2007.
Her "desi nuskhe" are still a topic of conversation in every Indian household, often given credit for refashioning vegetarian food in India. Dalal passed away in November 2013.
