The release of Kangana Ranaut’s Emergency was recently postponed. The film was facing criticism from various Sikh organisations and not getting a green signal from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Now, as per India Today, the film has received a U/A certificate from CBFC, with a few cuts. Also read: ‘Emergency pe Emergency laggai’: All about the controversies surrounding Kangana Ranaut’s film

Gets a green signal from CBFC

As per the report, the clearance for the film comes with specific conditions. The makers have been told to edit out some scenes and add disclaimers for a few sequences.

Quoting a source, the report stated, “CBFC has asked filmmakers to give disclaimers on historical events depicted in the film.” However, the release date of the film has not been finalised yet.

The U/A certificate implies that the film can be viewed by people from different age groups, but with parental guidance.

The film, as per several reports, was submitted for a review on July 8 to the board. However, it got pushed from September 6 release due to the delay in the clearance of the film. Kangana shared the delay update earlier this month, saying that the makers are “still waiting for the certification from censor board”.

The film, a biographical political thriller, delves into the life of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who imposed a 21-month emergency period from 1975 to 1977.

The Emergency stir

Apart from the delay in certification, the film faced backlash from several Sikh groups for the portrayal of the Sikh community. In fact, various Sikh organisations, including Akal Takht and the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee, began demanding that the film be banned.

The stir was caused by the first few glimpses of the film which showed slain Sikh militant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale to be in cahoots with Indira Gandhi.
