These days, films that question traditions have been on the rise. As there are many political and religious positions that filmmakers are taking these days, films that are nervous have been increasing in number. We do not know whether to release them or not, but they are definitely bringing home a point of discussion about the obscure traditions that have been humiliating human progress over the years. Halal The Film, seems to be one of those films.
National Award-winning director Shivaji Lothan Patil has directed the film and the teaser describes the ill effects of Triple Talak in Islam. According to the religious tradition, if the husband tells his wife Talak by telephone or in person or if he sends a letter to Talak three times, then the wife and the husband will divorce for eternity. There are many rules that she can not marry her husband again and she has to leave everything in place and move after this. Well, the movies seem to be questioning this tradition through a character.
The teaser made it clear that a husband announces Talak three times to his wife and leaves the house. Unable to understand this sudden announcement, the wife asks all Moulvis and other village leaders to help her in this situation. The film seems to portray a strong statement against this old tradition in Islam and is scheduled for a release on September 29.
Chinmay Mandlekar, Priyadarshan Jadhav, Pritam Kagne, Vijay Chavan, Chaya Kadam, Sanjay Sugaokar, Vimal Mhatre, Amol Kagne, Neha Dakhinka and Surekha Kagne are performing in the film. Already, the film has won accolades at the Pune Film Festival in 2016 and also at the Aurangabad International Film Festival.
