Kangana Ranaut's 'Emergency' Gets Postponed Again Due to THIS Reason

Kangana Ranaut’s Emergency has been postponed again. On Wednesday, the makers of the film issued a statement and revealed that the political drama will not hit theatres on June 14, 2024. The decision to postpone the film has been taken since the actress is currently busy with the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, which she is contesting from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh.

“Our hearts are filled with love pouring in for our queen Kangana Ranaut. As she prioritises her duty to the nation and her commitment to serve the country, the release date of our much-awaited film ‘Emergency’ has been postponed. We promise to update you soon with a new release date. Thank you for your continued support,” the statement by team Emergency read.

This is the third time that Emergency has been postponed. Kangana Ranaut’s film was originally supposed to hit theatres in October 2023. However, it was then postponed for November 24, 2023, to avoid a clash with Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon’s Ganpath. Later, the film was further pushed to June 14, 2024.

Kangana Ranaut announced Emergency in 2021 and later clarified that even though Emergency is a political drama, it is not Indira Gandhi’s biopic. The actress is not just playing the lead in the film but is also directing it. Besides Kangana, the film also stars Anupam Kher, Milind Soman, Mahima Chaudhry and Shreyas Talpade among others.

Previously, Kangana talked about the movie while speaking to the news agency PTI and said, “Emergency is my most ambitious project and second directorial post-Manikarnika, we have the best of Indian and international talent come together for this big budget, grand period drama.”

The actress also talked about directing the film in another interview when she told ANI, “Emergency is one of the most significant and darkest chapters in our history that young India needs to know. It is a crucial story and I want to thank my super-talented actors like late Satish ji, Anupam ji, Shreyas, Mahima, and Milind for embarking on this creative journey together. I am excited to bring this extraordinary episode from India’s history to the big screen. Jaihind!”
