Movie Lover
A gripping courtroom drama inspired by the landmark 1985 Shah Bano case, the
film follows her battle against triple talaq abandonment and fight for alimony, confronting the clash between personal law and constitutional rights. Elevated by stellar lead performances and a sensitive yet mature treatment of complex themes, the narrative resonates powerfully, though occasional sentimentality softens its full impact. The screenplay skillfully balances emotional depth with legal intricacies, sustaining courtroom tension while probing faith, gender justice, and reform without lapsing into overt preachiness.
Suparn Varma’s direction demonstrates restraint and conviction, though certain arcs feel stretched for dramatic effect. Yami Gautam delivers a career‑best performance as Shazia—fierce, vulnerable, and deeply human—while Emraan Hashmi compellingly charts Salim’s transformation from charming husband to ego‑driven antagonist. Strong supporting turns, particularly from Sheeba Chaddha, enrich the ensemble with raw authenticity. Pratham Mehta’s striking visuals, paired with an evocative score by Sandeep Chowta and Vishal Mishra, enhance the film’s impact.
With its impactful storytelling, nuanced character work, and unflinching social commentary, this is essential viewing. A triumph of sincere, performer‑driven drama—mature, relevant, and anchored by powerhouse acting that sparks vital conversations on women’s rights and secular justice.

"A Good Legal Drama — Weak 70s/80s Atmosphere"
The movie is based on the real
Shah Bano case, but it’s told in a cinematic and emotional way like a family drama, making it easy
