In a highly-anticipated collaboration, Netflix is poised to present the opulent world of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's first-ever series, "Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar," slated for release later this year. The series, a 14-year passion project by the acclaimed Indian filmmaker, promises a mesmerizing narrative set against the backdrop of pre-independent India, embroiled in a power struggle within the enigmatic realm of Heeramandi.
