The protest led to the deployment of heavy police forces to maintain law and order. SGPC expressed concerns over the film’s portrayal of historical event.

The SGPC has said that film has an ‘anti-Sikh agenda’. It has also claimed that the film has several facts distorted

Directed by Kangana and produced by Zee Studios, Manikarnika Films, and Renu Pitti, ‘Emergency’ revolves around the emergency declared by former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in 1975.

Besides Kangana (who plays the titular role), the film also stars Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair and the late Satish Kaushik.
