Emergency, directed by Kangana Ranaut, is a political drama that attempts to dissect one of the most controversial and significant events in Indian history—the Emergency declared in 1975. Spanning 21 months, this period saw the suspension of civil liberties, censorship of the press, mass arrests, and political upheaval under the leadership of then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
Kangana Ranaut not only directs but also stars in the titular role of Indira Gandhi, a formidable figure whose decisions during this time remain a point of debate. While the film aims to shed light on the political and personal challenges faced by Gandhi, it struggles to balance historical accuracy with cinematic flair.
Emergency: Box Office Collection
Kangana Ranaut starrer failed to create any pre release buzz and several postponements didn’t help either. Film failed to open and collected poor 3.11 crore nett on day one. Film grew little on day two and collected 4.28 crore net. Film added 4.87 crore net on day three.
After poor 3 – day total of 12.26 crore net, film dropped further and collected 1.27 crore net on day 4 followed by subsequent drops on weekdays. Film collected 16.35 crore in week one and will finish with under 25 crore lifetime. Another Flop for Kangana Ranaut!
Day 1: 3.11 crore
Day 2: 4.28 crore
Day 3: 4.87 crore
Day 4: 1.27 crore
Day 5: 1.03 crore
Day 6: 0.96 crore
Day 7: 0.83 crore
Total: 16.35 crore net
This is another washout opening for actress after Tejas and Dhaakad. Film collected 25% less (16.64 crore nett) than Alia Bhatt starrer Jigra which was in itself box office failure.
