HAQ Movie Review

Director Suparn S Varma zooms in on a woman pushed way below where she belongs, and how she refuses to stay there. She stands up, demands her rights, and won’t let anyone silence her.

The story kicks off in the mid-1980s. Shazia Bano (played by Yami Gautam Dhar) is gutsy and determined. After her husband Abbas Khan (Emraan Hashmi) tosses out “triple talaq,” she demands her haq, her right. Their story goes back to the 1960s. Shazia, a Maulvi’s daughter, marries Abbas, a big-name lawyer.

They have three kids, and for a while, things are bright. But the love starts to fade. Then, out of nowhere, Abbas brings another woman, Saira (Vartika Singh), into their home.

Shazia, pregnant at the time, is blindsided. Saira calls her a “charity case,” and that stings her pride takes a beating. What starts as a fight for alimony quickly spirals into a divorce, delivered through a simple phrase: triple talaq. Now, Shazia has to find the guts to speak out, even when society tries to drown her out with tradition and noise.
