The film, a biographical political thriller, delves into the life of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who imposed a 21-month emergency period from 1975 to 1977.
Kangana Ranaut-starrer ‘Emergency’ has been embroiled in controversies for some time now. From facing backlash from several Sikh groups to not getting a green signal from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) yet, ‘Emergency’ is clearly having a tough time ahead of its release. However, amid the uproar, the film’s team is quite optimistic.
Kangana Ranaut has revealed earlier that her much-anticipated political drama ‘Emergency’ is still awaiting certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
On Friday, Kangana took to social media and revealed that her much-anticipated political drama ‘Emergency’ is still awaiting certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
Despite earlier reports suggesting that ‘Emergency’ had received clearance from the CBFC, Kangana disclosed that the film’s certification is currently on hold.
“There have been rumours circulating that my film Emergency has been certified by the Censor Board. This is not true. While our film did receive clearance from the CBFC, the certification was on hold due to numerous death threats against members of the censor board,” Kangana said.
“There is pressure being put on us to remove certain scenes, such as the assassination of Indira Gandhi, the Punjab riots, and more. Now, I don’t know what else to show. What are we supposed to do–blackout the film during these scenes? This is unbelievable to me, and I am deeply sorry for the current state of thinking in this country,” she added.
