Emraan Hashmi and Yami Gautam’s latest courtroom drama Haq continues to make its mark at the Indian box office with strong word-of-mouth and steady weekend growth.
According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film earned ₹1.75 crore on its opening day (Friday) and showed an impressive 91.43% jump on Day 2 (Saturday), collecting ₹3.35 crore, taking its total domestic earnings to ₹5.10 crore.
With an overall occupancy rate of 19.35%, the film’s evening and night shows recorded the highest turnout, suggesting growing interest among urban audiences. Morning shows saw 7.66% occupancy, while evening shows went as high as 28.57%.
⚖️ A Story Rooted in Justice and Gender Equality
Directed by Suparn S Varma, Haq draws inspiration from the historic 1985 Shah Bano case, which ignited nationwide debates about women’s rights, secularism, and the Uniform Civil Code (UCC).
The film follows the emotional and legal struggle of a 62-year-old Muslim woman who seeks alimony after her divorce, challenging patriarchal traditions and systemic apathy.
Emraan Hashmi plays the role of a lawyer who takes on the case, while Yami Gautam delivers a stirring performance as the woman’s determined advocate.
🎥 Cast and Production
Haq features a strong supporting ensemble including Sheeba Chaddha, Vartika Singh, and Danish Husain, each bringing gravitas to the socially-charged narrative.
The film is jointly produced by Junglee Pictures, Insomnia Films, and Baweja Studios, known for their commitment to bringing issue-based stories to mainstream audiences.
💬 Yami Gautam’s Reaction
As the film continues to gain traction, Yami Gautam expressed heartfelt gratitude toward the audience on X (formerly Twitter).
“A well-intended film finds its audience eventually & vice-versa. Grateful,” she wrote.
Her post has since gone viral, with fans praising both Yami and Emraan for choosing a project that “sparks dialogue beyond entertainment.”
🔮 What Lies Ahead
With positive word-of-mouth and limited competition at the box office, trade analysts predict that Haq could see further growth over the weekend and maintain a stable weekday trend.
If the momentum continues, the film is expected to cross the ₹10 crore mark within its first week, a solid performance for a socially relevant drama.
