Dark Times Of Emergency

Directed by Kangana Ranaut, Emergency explores the 21-month Emergency period imposed by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi from 1975 to 1977. The film stars Kher as Jayaprakash Narayan, an influential political leader who played a key role in the opposition against the Emergency. Other notable actors in the film include Shreyas Talpade and the late Satish Kaushik. The film is slated for release on January 17.

In a recent interview with ANI, both Kangana and Anupam Kher opened up about their roles and the collaborative process behind making Emergency. Kangana, who also directed the film, expressed her deep respect for Kher, calling him the “hero” of the film. “It was very important for me to have Anupam ji in this film. If he had refused, then I wouldn’t have made it,” she said. She further emphasized how Kher’s honesty and integrity made him the perfect choice for portraying the legendary leader Jayaprakash Narayan.
