The courtroom drama "Haq," starring Emraan Hashmi and Yami Gautam, has witnessed a significant jump in its box office collections on its second day, doubling its earnings and bringing in ₹3.35 crore. This increase is attributed to positive word-of-mouth publicity. The movie, directed by Suparn S Varma and produced by Junglee Pictures, Insomnia Films, and Baweja Studios, also stars Vartika Singh, Sheeba Chaddha, and Danish Husain in key roles.

On its opening day, "Haq" earned ₹1.75 crore. Despite positive reviews, this was considered a low start compared to other recent Bollywood releases like "Thamma" and "Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat". Some reports suggest an even lower opening day collection of ₹1.50 crore. Film trade experts had earlier predicted a stronger opening, with some forecasting ₹3.5cr - ₹4cr.

The film's plot is inspired by the landmark Supreme Court case of Mohd. Ahmed Khan vs. Shah Bano Begum of 1985. Emraan Hashmi plays Mohd. Ahmed Khan, while Yami Gautam portrays his wife, Shazia Bano. This is the first time Hashmi and Gautam have worked together, generating buzz around their on-screen chemistry.

Reacting to the film's day two box office growth, Yami Gautam expressed her gratitude to the audience, stating that a well-intended film eventually finds its audience.

While "Haq" has shown promising growth on its second day, it remains to be seen whether it can maintain this momentum throughout the weekend. Some industry experts believe that reaching a double-digit total by the end of the weekend could be difficult if the trend does not improve. The film's performance will depend on continued positive word of mouth and support from urban centers.

The last quarter of the year has been positive for Bollywood, with films like "Thamma" and "Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat" performing well. "Haq" is looking to capitalize on this wave, and the jump in collections on day two is a positive sign.
