Emergency Movie - MP High Court seeks response from Censor Board on ban on Kangana's film 'Emergency'

Emergency Movie: Bollywood's popular actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut's upcoming film "Emergency" has once again started facing controversies. Just four days before the premiere of the film, Kangana has made serious allegations against the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Kangana claims that the release of her film is being deliberately delayed and the censor board is trying to stop its certification.

Kangana Ranaut is playing the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the film "Emergency", and according to her, if the uncut version of the film is not approved, she is ready to take legal action. Amidst this controversy, an important news has come out from Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh.

Jabalpur High Court issued notices

On September 2, the Jabalpur High Court heard a petition regarding "Emergency". The petition alleges that the Sikh community has been portrayed in a wrong way in the film. The court has issued notices to all the concerned parties in this matter, including Kangana's production house, Manikarnika Productions, the Central Government, the State Government and the Censor Board.

The High Court has also sought a reply from the Censor Board whether the film has been certified yet or not. This Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been filed by Jabalpur Sikh Sangat and Guru Singh Sabha Indore.

Impact on the release date of "Emergency"

The release of the film "Emergency" was scheduled for 6 September 2024. But at the moment, due to this controversy and legal procedures, the release of the film has been postponed for some time. The wait for this biopic of Kangana may be longer now, and the audience will have to wait for the new release date of this film.

Conclusion

The ongoing legal battle over the story of Kangana Ranaut's "Emergency" and the role of Indira Gandhi has created a stir in the film industry. The recent action of the Madhya Pradesh High Court and the accountability of the Censor Board have made this controversy more complicated. Now it remains to be seen what effect this legal complexities have on the release of the film and when this ambitious project of Kangana Ranaut will be seen on the screen.
