Set in 1975, Kangana Ranaut's movie focuses on Indira Gandhi, one of India's most influential and controversial leaders, as she navigates the 21-month Emergency—a phase often remembered as one of the darkest in the country's history.
However, Kangana Ranaut said that ‘Emergency’ was “not a political film” but a story.
“It has nothing to do with politics. You may find it very bizarre right now. Eventually, it is not about any party. You will come out feeling that, you just saw the film; you won't come out feeling who you will vote for. You were only enlightened about that episode,” she had said in an interview.
Apart from Kangana Ranaut, who plays the protagonist Indira Gandhi, other stars in the movie produced under the banner Manikarnika Films and Zee Studio are Milind Soman, who plays Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw, Anupam Kher as Jayaprakash Narayan, and Shreyas Talpade as Atal Bihari Bajpayee.
