Haq movie review
India TV gave Haq a 3.5-star rating, writing, “In a year when cinematic mainstream often tilts towards spectacle, Haq is commendably sober and anchored. It asks uncomfortable questions, about faith, about marital rights, about the law, and does so without heavy-handed preaching. If it has a flaw, it is that one wishes it pushed harder, dug deeper, or allowed itself more risk.”
