Emergency is an upcoming Indian Hindi-language biographical political drama film directed and co-produced by Kangana Ranaut, based on a screenplay by Ritesh Shah and story written by Ranaut.[3] Based on the Indian Emergency, it stars Ranaut as former Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi.[4][5] The film also features Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, Mahima Chaudhry, Milind Soman and Satish Kaushik in pivotal roles.

Principal photography commenced in July 2022 and ended in January 2023.[6] It was scheduled for release on 6 September 2024, but it has been postponed as the film failed to clear the censorship requirements of the Central Board of Film Certification.[7][8]
