Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 14 (ANI): At the trailer launch event for her film “Emergency,” actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut addressed the challenges she faced while making the film, including being boycotted by the film industry. She expressed gratitude towards her cast and crew for standing by her despite the obstacles.
Kangana revealed that her team advised her not to speak to the media, but she chose to do so openly. She claimed that some individuals in the industry try to sabotage films and ruin careers, and that her team was concerned about negative publicity.
Kangana also shared that her team asked her not to open up to the media; however, she decided to speak and answer their questions openly about her upcoming film, ‘Emergency.’
“My PR team has said that ‘we will not open it to media. Aapko bolne ki azaadi nahi hai (You don’t have the freedom to speak). Think about it. So Anupam Ji said, no, no, open it to the media. They are our friends. There is no need to put an emergency here.”
Kangana added the reason behind this suggestion by her team and shared, “People who are waiting to overwrite this product with negativity will invest in the PRs to malign the film and to unnecessarily take away from the film. That’s our only concern. People in our film industry can be extremely negative to sabotage films and ruin careers. This is why I am a little hesitant otherwise I speak in the Parliament, so there is no issue…”
Veteran actor Anupam Kher praised Kangana and said, “Kangana vo shaksiyat hai jisko dil see dekhkar har insaan chahe to inspire ho sakta hai… I have been part of her journey..It’s amazing the way she has made this film.”
‘Emergency’, a project helmed entirely by Kangana Ranaut, boasts a stellar cast including Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, and the late Satish Kaushik in pivotal roles.
The trailer of the film is unveiled today.
Based on the period when emergency was imposed in the country in 1975, it stars Ranaut as former Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi.
The trailer shows young Indira’s bond with her father, the late Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, as she entered politics. It then shows how she dealt with conflicts, political turmoil, and other issues over her lengthy career.
It also gives glimpses into the various issues that the film touches including the Emergency period, the Shimla Agreement, the rise of the Khalistan movement, and JP Andolan, among others.
