In the courtroom drama, Haq, Yami Gautam plays Shazia Bano, a woman who fights for justice after her husband Abbas Khan (played by Emraan Hashmi) leaves her. Abbas Khan, a respected lawyer who ends up fighting against her in court, turning their personal story into a legal battle.
Director Suparn S Varma said the film asks “tough but important questions about faith, equality, and justice.” He added that Haq makes viewers think about issues that are still relevant even decades after the real Shah Bano case.
What really happened with Shah Bano?
The film Haq is inspired by one of India’s most talked-about legal cases, the Mohd. Ahmed Khan vs Shah Bano Begum case of 1985. This Supreme Court judgment in real life gave a Muslim woman the right to get financial support from her ex-husband. The case started a nationwide debate on women’s rights, religion, and equality.
The movie is based on journalist Jigna Vora’s book Bano: Bharat Ki Beti, which tells the story. In 1978, Shah Bano Begum, a 62-year-old Muslim woman, went to court asking for financial help from her ex-husband, a rich lawyer. What began as her personal fight for justice became a major legal and social movement. The 1985 Supreme Court ruling in her favour became a landmark moment for women’s rights in India.
