Kangana Ranaut reacts to film release delay: ‘Meri film pe hi Emergency lag gayi hai’

Kangana Ranaut's long-awaited maiden solo directorial Emergency will no longer release on September 6. On Shubhankar Mishra's podcast, the actor-filmmaker reacted to the stalling of her film's release after the Central Board of Film Certification revoked its certificate post multiple petitions


Kangana says Emergency imposed on her film

“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 too. It's a very hopeless state. I'm quite disappointed by our country and whatever the circumstances are),” Kangana said.

Kangana argued that she's being singled out as the events she's showcased in her movie have already been documented in movies like Madhur Bhandarkar's 2017 political thriller Indu Sarkar (imposition of 1975 Emergency) and Meghna Gulzar's Sam Bahadur (1971 India-Pakistan War) last year. She added that while she'd already gotten her film certified by the CBFC, her certificate was revoked after review because of multiple petitions.
