Marking the occasion of International Women’s Day, the Bihar State Film Development and Finance Corporation Ltd. (Department of Art & Culture, Government of Bihar) is organising a special screening of the film Haq, a robust narrative centred on a lady’s fight for dignity, justice and her rightful place in society.
Suparn Verma’s Haq to be screened in Patna on International Women’s Day
Directed by Suparn Verma, the film draws inspiration from the historic legal battle of Shah Bano, whose case became a landmark moment in India’s conversation around women’s rights, maintenance laws and equality before the law. The film explores the emotional, social and legal journey of a lady who challenges long-standing norms to say what’s rightfully hers.
The special screening will happen on March 7, 2026, at 11:30 AM at Regent Cinema. The event shall be graced by Pranav Kumar because the Chief Guest. The event is being organised under the leadership of Mrs. Rachna, IAS, Managing Director of the Bihar State Film Development & Finance Corporation Ltd., celebrating cinema that highlights meaningful and socially relevant narratives.
The film is produced by Vineet Jain, Vishal Gurnani, Juhi Parekh Mehta, Harman Baweja and Vicky Jain.
Through its narrative, Haq highlights a deeply personal yet universally relevant story about resilience, courage and the pursuit of justice. By bringing the film to audiences on International Women’s Day, the organisers hope to spark meaningful conversations about gender equality and the continued importance of recognising women’s voices and rights.
Speaking in regards to the film, director Suparn Verma said, “Haq is just not just a movie; it’s a reminder of the courage it takes for a girl to rise up and claim what’s rightfully hers. The story inspired by Shah Bano is a robust chapter in India’s social and legal history, and it deserves to be seen, discussed and celebrated. My hope is that audiences walk away reflecting on how far we’ve come, and the way much further we still have to go in relation to women’s rights and dignity.”
The film features powerful performances by Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi, who bring depth and authenticity to their roles. With its strong storytelling, meaningful subject and impactful performances, Haq stands as a vital cinematic work addressing themes of justice, equality and social change.
