While she deals with the anomalies, not-so happening love and professional life, Zoya, who hates cricket, is tasked with shooting the men in blue in their new jersey.

And as they say, love can strike you anytime, a chance encounter with the Indian cricket team makes Zoya fall for captain Nikhil Khoda (Dulquer Salmaan).

The two-minute forty-six second trailer shows Zoya soon hitting the headlines and earning monikers like 'Mata'.

Sharing the trailer on her twitter handle, the 'Aisha' actor wrote, "The lucky mascot of 1.2 billion people is ready to spread some luck. Share The Zoya Factor trailer with 20 people and get instant good luck."
