'I'll fight in court': Kangana Ranaut's 'Emergency' Postponed

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is known for being surrounded by controversies and the most recent one that she is facing revolves around her upcoming film ‘Emergency’. The film has been postponed as it has not received the green signal from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The film was initially supposed to be released on September 6. The censor board has suggested several cuts due to the sensitive issue of the movie.

In a podcast, Kangana opened about the issue, "Meri film pe hi Emergency lag gayi hai. Bahut hi nirashajanak ye sthiti hai. Main toh khair bahut hi zyada disappointed hu apne desh se, aur jo bhi haalaat hain [An Emergency has been imposed on my film now. It's a terrible situation. I am very disappointed with our nation and how things are unfolding here]."

She added, "We'll keep telling those ridiculous stories otherwise. We'll get scared by someone today, someone else tomorrow. People will keep scaring us because we get scared so easily. How much will we keep getting scared?"

She further said, "I've made this film with a lot of self-respect, which is why the CBFC can't point out any contention. They've stalled my certificate, but I'm determined to release an uncut version of the film. I'll fight in court and release an uncut version. I can't show all of a sudden that Indira Gandhi died on her own at her home. I can't show it like that.”

‘Emergency’, sees Kangana Ranaut playing the role of the former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and also stars Anupam Kher, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade and the late Satish Kaushik. The film is based on the real life historical event of the imposition of emergency in the country in 1975.
