Ahead Of Emergency Release Kangana Ranaut Gets Legal Notice

Kangana Ranaut's directorial debut, Emergency, is set to release on September 6, 2024, but has already sparked controversy with its trailer. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has sent a legal notice to the producers and director, objecting to scenes in the trailer that allegedly hurt Sikh sentiments. The committee has also written to the Union Minister of Information and Broadcasting and the Central Board of Film Certification's Chairperson, requesting that the film's release be stopped.

The trailer, released thirteen days ago, has garnered rave reviews on YouTube but has been criticized by the Sikh community for its portrayal of historical events. A petition has been submitted to the Punjab and Haryana High Court, requesting that some scenes be removed and the film's release be prevented to avoid potentially harmful content. The petitioners allege that the film inaccurately portrays historical events, tarnishing the reputation of the Sikh community and spreading hate.

The trailer showcases Kangana Ranaut as Indira Gandhi, the first and only female Prime Minister of India, navigating the complexities of Indian politics. It highlights the challenges, triumphs, and defeats of Gandhi's life, which forever changed the course of India's history. However, the depiction of the Sikh community's demand for 'Khalistan' and their fight against Gandhi has sparked controversy.

As the release date approaches, the controversy surrounding Emergency is likely to intensify. The film's portrayal of historical events and its impact on the Sikh community will be closely watched. With its gripping narrative and intense scenes, Emergency is set to be a thought-provoking film, but its accuracy and sensitivity will be crucial in avoiding further controversy.
