The film, which revolves around the life of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, is set to hit theaters on November 24, 2023. Directing the film and starring in it, Kangana expressed her thoughts, stating, “Emergency is one of the most significant and darkest chapters in our history that young India needs to know. It is a crucial story, and I want to thank my super-talented actors like the late Satish ji, Anupam ji, Shreyas, Mahima, and Milind for embarking on this creative journey together. I am excited to bring this extraordinary episode from India’s history to the big screen. Jaihind!”

Alongside Kangana, the film features Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhry, Vishak Nair, and Shreyas Talpade in prominent roles. Indira Gandhi, the subject of the film, served as the third Prime Minister of India and remains the only female to have held the position. She was the daughter of Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India.

Recently, Kangana shared that Vijayendra Prasad, the acclaimed writer of “Baahubali,” became emotional after watching the edited version of “Emergency.” She posted on Instagram, “After the complete edit is done, the first person to watch Emergency. Not only did Vijendra sir wipe his eyes several times while watching the edit, but after watching it, he said, ‘I am so proud of you, my child’… well, my life is made.”
