Despite earning good reactions, Haq started off slow, earning less than Rs 2 crore. The reason behind its low numbers might be the clash with the Telugu movies Jathadara and The Girlfriend.

In an interview with ETV Bharat, Yami Gautam said, “This film is inspired from the landmark judgment, it is not a biopic. Haq is an amalgamation of fiction and reality. I was amazed by her journey, which is heartbreaking, and at the same time it encapsulates in true definition the power of a woman, so much so that even 40 years later we are sitting and talking. After reading the script, I took a few moments to absorb it, and I stuck to my first thought. I never change that. When this happened, I was in high school; your childhood memories are very important. I still remember reading about this landmark case, and it felt very surreal that I was reading a script inspired by that case. I wanted to do justice to the part as an artist. It made me understand how and why this case became what it became. The film is not for any community; it is for the entire audience. It is universal.”
