Emraan Hashmi, Yami Gautam's Haq which was supposed to release on 7 November 2025 landed in trouble when the family members of Shabano approached Court seeking ban on its release.
Now, according to the latest, Madhya Pradesh High Court after hearing to the petition cleared decks for the release. The bench of Justice Pranay Verma said "The petitioner did not act immediately but preferred this petition on 01.11.2025, i.e. less than a week prior to the release of the film and that too, after the grant of the Certificate. After the release of the teaser, no steps were taken by the petitioner in respect of the grant of Certificate for the film. At least a month ago, cause of action for the petitioner to approach this Court had accrued, but she waited for a considerable period of time to prefer this petition. Her conduct is hence not that of a vigilant litigant. The petition hence also suffers from delay and latches,"
The film is directed by Suparn S Varma and it is based on the real life incidents of 1985 Shah Bano case, which concerned women's rights and maintenance laws in India.
