The film is directed by Suparn Verma and is inspired by the real-life legal case of Shah Bano, which was a major moment in India's discussion about women's rights, maintenance laws, and equality before the law.
It follows the emotional, social, and legal journey of a woman who challenges long-standing traditions to fight for what she is entitled to.
The special screening will happen on March 7, 2026, at 11:30 AM at Regent Cinema.
The event will be attended by Pranav Kumar as the Chief Guest. The event is organized under the leadership of Mrs. Rachna, IAS, who is the Managing Director of the Bihar State Film Development & Finance Corporation Ltd. The event celebrates cinema that brings attention to important and socially relevant stories.
The film is produced by Vineet Jain, Vishal Gurnani, Juhi Parekh Mehta, Harman Baweja, and Vicky Jain.
*Haq* highlights a deeply personal yet universally relevant story about resilience, courage, and the pursuit of justice.
By showing the film on International Women's Day, the organizers hope to start meaningful conversations about gender equality and the importance of recognizing women's voices and rights.
Speaking about the film, director Suparn Verma said, "Haq is not just a film; it's a reminder of the courage it takes for a woman to stand up and claim what is rightfully hers.
The story, inspired by Shah Bano, is a powerful chapter in India's social and legal history and deserves to be seen, discussed, and celebrated. My hope is that audiences leave thinking about how far we've come and how much more we need to do to ensure women's rights and dignity."
The film features strong performances by Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi, who bring a lot of depth and authenticity to their roles.
With its strong storytelling, meaningful subject, and powerful performances, *Haq* is an important film that deals with themes of justice, equality, and social change.
