News Topical, Digital Desk : Some films have stories that resonate directly with fans. One such film, released last November, depicted the battle between "community and law." Directed by Suparna Verma, the film received a positive review from critics and received widespread praise for its bold subject matter.

Now, after a wait of over a month and a half, the film has finally arrived on the OTT platform, and with its release, it has established its place on the digital platform. The 2-hour, 16-minute film's story is so powerful that it won't let you leave your seat. Read the full details below to learn about this film, its plot, and which OTT platform you can watch it on.

The story of a private struggle of an ordinary woman

The film tells the story of an ordinary woman who fights for maintenance to raise her children. Her husband is a lawyer, but she refuses to give up. Before the courtroom drama, the story flashes back to 17 years ago, where Shazia and Abbas are deeply in love. Their relationship continues for nine years, but a rift develops when Abbas returns from Pakistan with a new wife, leading to their divorce.

Abbas not only abandons Shazia, but also refuses to take responsibility for their three children or provide them with the necessary support for their future. When Abbas refuses to pay alimony, Shazia approaches the court. He attempts to silence Shazia by citing triple talaq, but she remains undeterred, and this personal battle between a Muslim woman soon becomes a national debate.

The film's story is inspired by Jigna Vora's book Bano: India's Daughter. The film stars Yami Gautam (Shazia Bano) and Emraan Hashmi (Abbas Khan). The film is titled "Haq."

On which OTT platform can you watch 'Haq'?

The film sparked considerable controversy. In 2025, Shah Bano's daughter, Siddiqa Begum, sent a legal notice to the CBFC and the producers of Haq, alleging that her consent was not obtained for depicting the 1985 Supreme Court case in the film. She also alleged that aspects of her mother's story were misrepresented.

If for any reason you could not watch the Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi starrer movie in theatres, then you can now watch it on the OTT platform Netflix.
