The gavel is ready to fall, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. With less than a month to go before its theatrical release, Haq—the much-anticipated legal thriller—has dropped a new poster that immediately sets the tone: fiery, fierce, and absolutely unmissable. Starring Yami Gautam Dhar and Emraan Hashmi in a tense courtroom face-off, the film promises a gripping narrative inspired by one of the most controversial and impactful legal cases in Indian history—the 1985 Shah Bano case.
Directed by Suparn S Varma and penned by Reshu Nath, Haq is not your average courtroom drama. It dives headfirst into the debate between personal laws and constitutional rights, dramatizing a moment in time that reshaped India’s legal and political landscape. And judging by the poster—featuring Yami and Emraan locked in a cold stare, robes flaring—you can bet this film will deliver not just arguments, but fireworks.
The star-studded cast also includes the always-excellent Sheeba Chadha, Danish Hussain, and Aseem Hattangady, bringing depth to a story that’s as layered as it is controversial. Backed by Junglee Pictures, along with producers Vineet Jain, Vishal Gurnani, Juhi Parekh Mehta, and Harman Baweja, this film is poised to stir debate—and possibly discomfort—right up to the day of its release on November 7, 2025.
But the film isn’t without its share of real-world drama. Just last week, Shah Bano’s daughter issued a legal notice to the filmmakers, citing concerns over privacy and defamation under Article 21 of the Constitution. With the film drawing directly from real-life events and public figures, the notice has only added more fuel to the fire—and more eyes to the screen. Whether this controversy will impact the film’s release remains to be seen, but one thing’s certain: Haq is now more than just a movie—it’s a cultural flashpoint.
As the countdown to release begins, audiences are bracing for a courtroom showdown that blends law, emotion, and societal tension. Yami and Emraan look ready to argue it out—not just for justice, but for Haq itself.
