Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi to bring Shah Bano's battle to the big screen
Actors Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi have successfully wrapped up filming their upcoming historical judgement inspired by one of India's most pivotal legal battles, the 1985 Shah Bano case . In this much-anticipated film, Yami steps into the shoes of Shah Bano, while Emraan portrays a character inspired by her former husband, Ahmed Khan. The movie aims to shed light on a landmark case that stirred national debate on gender rights, religious personal laws, and constitutional justice. The case that shook the nation The Shah Bano case originated in 1978, when 62-year-old Shah Bano filed a plea in Indore seeking maintenance from her husband, Mohammed Ahmad Khan, a respected lawyer who had divorced her after four decades of marriage and five children. Shah Bano invoked Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC), 1973, a secular provision that mandates maintenance for a divorced woman who is unable to sustain herself. However, her husband contested the claim, citing Muslim Personal Law, which states a man is only obligated to support his wife during the iddat period, roughly three months post-divorce. The All India Muslim Personal Law Board backed Khan's argument, contending that religious laws must be upheld without interference from the secular judiciary. The landmark supreme court ruling The matter escalated to the Supreme Court, where then Chief Justice Y.V. Chandrachud upheld Shah Bano's right to maintenance under the CrPC, affirming the High Court's decision. The Court even increased the maintenance amount. The verdict was hailed for reinforcing the supremacy of constitutional law over personal religious codes when it comes to individual rights. A call for uniform civil code The case reignited the national conversation around gender equality, secularism, and the Uniform Civil Code (UCC). The ruling emphasized that personal laws should not override fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution, especially in a democratic and secular state.

Yami Gautam opens up on her Bollywood journey, says 'goals keep changing'
Bollywood actor Yami Gautam, who has been a part of the film industry for more than a decade, recently opened up about her journey and how she landed her first Bollywood film. While speaking to ANI, Yami discussed her journey and shared how "true satisfaction" is hard to achieve. "Satisfaction, I don't think you ever feel like you've achieved it. If you set a goal and when you reach it, it feels like, 'Oh, I wanted this, but now it's okay.' Maybe the goal 10 years ago was something else. Now I'm here, and now the goal is different. I might not be able to explain my goal in words because there's nothing in my mindset that says I want to make a film in this way or with these people. Whenever I read a script, my perspective is always that someone is offering me a script for the first time," she said. Speaking about the happiness she feels when people appreciate her work, the actress shared, "It has been a journey... I feel good when I see happiness on the faces of the people and they appreciate my films. I have no grudges or complaints in my mind. This is a journey that one has to travel alone, whether you are from the industry or an outsider. The final verdict lies with the audience." Yami then recalled how she got her first Bollywood film Vicky Donor. She revealed that she got the role through an audition. "Audition. Jogi ji, our casting director, had called me for an audition for another film. But for some reason, I couldn't give that audition. It didn't work out. Then he said that that film wouldn't work out, but there's another one. I asked, 'Okay, Jogi ji, what's this film about? What's the concept?' So, he had prepared a small audition with a few lines and asked me, 'Can you do this?' I said, 'Of course, I would love to do it.' There was something about Vicky Donor that excited me," she said. The 2012 release Vicky Donor, which also starred Ayushmann Khurrana, was lauded for its progressive content and for initiating conversations about issues that were previously treated as 'taboo'. Yami was recently seen in Dhoom Dhaam, which released on Valentine's Day. The film is produced by her husband, Aditya Dhar, along with Lokesh Dhar and Jyoti Deshpande.
