The film Emergency dives deep into one of India’s most controversial political periods—the Emergency of 1975 to 1977—imposed by Indira Gandhi. This 22-month span is often regarded as one of the darkest chapters in Indian democracy, characterized by the suspension of civil liberties, censorship of the press, and widespread political suppression.
Directed by and starring Kangana Ranaut as Indira Gandhi, Emergency also boasts a stellar cast that includes Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, and the late Satish Kaushik. The film’s score is composed by Sanchit Balhara and G.V. Prakash Kumar, while the screenplay and dialogues are penned by Ritesh Shah.
