Emergency Movie Review: Kangana Ranaut's Powerful Indira Gandhi Portrayal

Kangana Ranaut’s Emergency explores Indira Gandhi’s political journey, focusing on the controversial 1975-77 Emergency, her son Sanjay Gandhi’s role, and her political redemption. While the film provides a detailed view of Gandhi’s career, it doesn’t delve deeply into the hardships faced by ordinary citizens during the period.

Kangana’s portrayal of Gandhi is exceptional, capturing her mannerisms and personality with accuracy. Strong performances by Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, and Vishak Nair add depth, with Nair standing out as Sanjay Gandhi. Kangana’s direction ensures a compelling narrative with high production quality, though some character development is lacking.

Final Verdict: Emergency is an engaging political drama driven by Kangana’s remarkable performance, making it a must-watch for those interested in India’s political history.
