Kangana Ranaut on Emergency: Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is constantly at the center of controversies regarding her film 'Emergency'. Let us tell you that Kangana Ranaut had said on Monday that communists or leftists have the freedom of anti-national expression, but OTT platforms do not allow nationalists to express their views.
Kangana Ranaut shared on X, The law of the land is that one can show unbridled violence and nudity on OTT platforms without any consequences or censorship, one can distort real-life incidents of communists or leftists across the world to serve their politically motivated nefarious purposes. There is complete freedom for such anti-national expressions, but whoever is nationalist is OTT. This platform does not allow us to roam around films.'

It seems that censorship is for some of us who don't want the division of this country and want to make films based on historical facts. This is extremely disappointing and unfair.' This came in response to Amit Malviya's post on the content of the IC-814 web series, in which he said that 'whitewashing the crimes of Pakistani terrorists, all Muslims is the agenda of the left.'
Four days before the scheduled premiere of Emergency, Kangana has accused the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) of withholding her certificate to delay its release. Ranaut, who plays former prime minister Indira Gandhi in the film, said she will move court if the uncut version is not approved. “Emergency has been imposed on my film as well. It is a very disappointing situation. I am very disappointed with my country and whatever the situation may be… how scared would we be?
He told Shubhankar Mishra on his podcast, “I have made this film with a lot of self-respect, which is why the CBFC cannot raise any dispute. They have withheld my certificate, but I have decided to release the uncut version of the film.” I am determined to “fight in court and release the uncut version.”
According to a source, the film is not releasing on Friday as the makers have not yet received a certificate from the CBFC. The source said, “Although they (CBFC) have put up the U/A certificate on their website, the makers have not yet received a copy of the certificate. Every day a new cut is being made in the film, due to which they are under pressure. Kangana is fighting for the sanctity of the film. The Madhya Pradesh High Court is going to hear on Monday the petition of a Sikh organization seeking to stop the release of 'Emergency'.
