Kangana remains firm in her stance that cinema should spark discussions and bring communities together.

Emergency Boycott Call in Punjab: Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has addressed the controversy surrounding her film Emergency, which has reportedly been banned in Punjab and parts of other countries. The film, which chronicles a tumultuous chapter in Indian history during the Emergency period imposed by then-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, has sparked heated debates among audiences and political groups.

“Watch Before You Decide”

"Does this movie unite or divide us? Watch the film and then decide," Kangana said in her message to the public.

Kangana acknowledged the sensitivities surrounding the subject but reiterated the importance of understanding history. "Films like Emergency are made to ignite dialogue, not division. I request everyone to view it with an open mind," she added.
