Produced by Anurag Kashyap, Guneet Monga and Feroze Alameer, Haraamkhor was earlier banned by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). But later the Film Certification Appellate Tribunal (FCAT) lifted the ban.

The plot of Haraamkhor revolves around a married school teacher, played by Nawazuddin, in a relationship with his 14-year-old female student Sandhya (played by Shweta Tripathi). At the same time, Sandhya's junior schoolmate (played by Chillar Party fame Irfan Khan) admires her and falls in love with her. Shot in a small village in Gujarat, the love triangle is said to be funny in parts, but also puts across a serious message.

Several Bollywood celebrities including Huma Qureshi, Bhumi Pednekar, Vicky Kaushal and Manoj Bajpayee have lauded the movie and the actors' performances. Take a look at their tweets here:
