Today, a hearing took place in the Bombay High Court regarding Kangana Ranaut’s petition to direct the Censor Board to issue a censor certificate for her film “Emergency.” Despite her efforts, the High Court clarified that they cannot mandate the board to grant the certificate. Simultaneously, a petition has been filed in the Madhya Pradesh High Court against the movie.
Kangana’s self-directed film “Emergency” has faced yet another delay, prompting frustration from the actress who feels she is being penalized for her attempt to raise awareness. Originally scheduled for release on September 6, the film’s fate remains uncertain.
Sikh communities have also voiced their opposition to the movie, alleging misrepresentation and damage to their sentiments. Despite objections, Kangana announced a release date, which has not materialized due to the lack of a censor certificate. The Emergency Cinema Unit is contemplating legal action against the Censor Board’s decision, citing the film’s sensitive content as the reason for the delay.
Amidst the controversy, Kangana has faced criticism from various quarters, including accusations of promoting foreign conspiracies and receiving backlash from political figures. The film, based on the political life of Indira Gandhi, has become a focal point for debate and discord.
State Minister Jagat Singh’s remarks about Kangana visiting Himachal after floods led to a war of words, with the BJP condemning his comments as insensitive. Despite the challenges, Kangana remains steadfast in her roles as both director and producer, having invested her earnings and assets into the project.
