The political drama stars Ranaut in the role of former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. It focuses on Gandhi’s imposition of the 21-month internal Emergency in India between 1975 to 1977.
Emergency has been directed by Ranaut and produced by her and Renu Pitti. The screenplay is by Ritesh Shah from a ‘story’ by Ranaut.

“Emergency is one of the most significant and darkest chapters in our history that young India needs to know,” Ranaut said in a statement. “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.”
