Here is a summary of the film's description: Plot: The story centers on Shazia Bano (played by Yami Gautam Dhar), a devoted wife and mother whose lawyer-husband, Abbas Khan (played by Emraan Hashmi), marries a second time and later divorces her through triple talaq. Abandoned and struggling for financial support, Shazia takes her husband to court to fight for her right to maintenance. Theme: What begins as a personal dispute over maintenance escalates into a fierce legal and socio-political battle that questions whether religious personal law or secular justice should prevail. The film explores the misuse of religious laws to justify patriarchy and highlights a woman's struggle for dignity, justice, and her rights under the law. Cast & Director: It is directed by Suparn S Varma and stars Yami Gautam Dhar and Emraan Hashmi in the lead roles. Inspiration: The movie is a dramatized and fictionalized account, adapted from the book Bano: Bharat Ki Beti, that draws heavily from the real-life legal struggle of Shah Bano Begum.
