Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi Are Terrific in This Court Room Drama
Suparn S Verma's new film Haq starring Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi goes back in time and narrates the incidents that led to the iconic Shah Bano case. The film takes a deeper look at the Sharia law and how it deprived Indian muslim women of basic rights.
Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi’s latest film, Haq, brings a landmark case from the past to the forefront. The Shah Bano case, where the Supreme Court upheld Allahabad High Court’s verdict that gave senior lawyer Mohammed Ahmad Khan the order to pay lifelong maintenance to his estranged wife Shazia Bano Begum, is a case that changed the trajectory of muslim women and their rights in India. Inspired by the case and based on Jigna Vora’s book Bano: Bharat Ki Beti, Suparn Verma’s film fictionalises the landmark case, adding emotional depth and drama to make it into a solid and impactful film.
