Emergency was stalled by CBFC four days ahead of the scheduled release on September 6.  Sikh organizations demanded a ban over the film stating that their community has been put in a negative light and it distorts historical facts. To provide a certification CBFC suggested 13 cuts which were accepted by the makers Kangana Ranaut and co-producing company Zee Studios. Following making the necessary modifications and resubmitting the film to CBFC, the film has finally received a certification. 

The film, which has garnered immense buzz, will see Kangana taking on the role of the former Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi. The film’s team, along with Kangana Ranaut, is now preparing for the film’s release and will announce the official date soon.

Written and directed by Kangana Ranaut, ‘Emergency’ stars her and also features Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, and the late Satish Kaushik in pivotal roles. Produced by Zee Studios and Manikarnika Films, the film’s music is orchestrated by Sanchit Balhara and G V Prakash Kumar with screenplay and dialogues by Ritesh Shah.
