After 'Ishq Subhan Allah' turning out to be one of the most popular television shows, 'Phir Usi Mod Par', 'Code Blue' and a new wave of nationally and internationally acclaimed films and series throwing light on the plight of Muslim women in the country, around Asia, also including the Muslim dominated regions, "Halala" showcases the issues arising after a Muslim woman has been given 'Triple Talaq'. After the pronouncement of talaq thrice, the woman is deemed haram i.e. unlawful, and is therefore prohibited for the husband. And not just this, the barbarous practice of Nikah - Halala is an Islamic Law requiring a woman to marry and sleep with another man in order to return to her first husband!

Revolving around a couple’s compromise on love, a fearless woman’s journey and the fight within her and the society, Halala’s casting was an intricate process that concluded with veteran and the young talent alike, all set to portray their acting skills, all over again, on the new medium and thriving platform. Ullu’s 'Halala' has a stellar cast of Deepika Singh of Diya Aur Bati Hum fame, Ravi Bhatia known for his stint in Jodha Akbar, Chidia Ghar’s Shafaq Naaz and Eijaz Khan of Yeh Moh Moh Ke Dhaagey fame. Saving the best for the last, Ullu’s "Halala" has the popular and talented actress-dancer Neelima Azeem who essays the role of a mother in the show, Shafaq is set to play the show’s lead while Ravi and Eijaz will play her husbands and Deepika will portray the role of a lawyer in the awaited series.
