Actress Kangana Ranaut has wrapped up the acting schedule for ‘Emergency’. In a post on social media, she hinted about enemies who worked over time to stop her from making the film, and shared that she had to mortgage her properties while making it.

Taking to Instagram, Kangana shared a string of BTS pictures from the sets of the film and shared a long note about her experience working on ‘Emergency’.

The actress mentions: “As I wrap Emergency as an actor today, a tremendously glorious phase of my life comes to its full completion… It may seem I sailed through it comfortably but the truth is far from it.”

“From mortgaging all my properties, every single thing that I owned to being diagnosed with dengue during the first schedule and having to film it in spite of alarmingly low blood cell counts, my character as an individual has been severely tested.”

“I have been very open about my feelings on SM but I didn’t share all this, honestly because I didn’t want people who cared to worry unnecessarily and those who desperately want to see me fall and were doing everything to make me suffer, I didn’t want to give them the pleasure of my pain.”

She added: “At the same time I want to share with you all that if you believe just working hard for your dreams or for what you want is enough, think again because that’s not true…You must work hard that’s given even if you are worthy you will be tested beyond your limits and you mustn’t break.”

“Hold on to yourself till you can … you are fortunate if life spares you but you are blessed if it doesn’t…. if you break and shatter in pieces… celebrate… Because it’s time for you to reborn. .It’s a rebirth for me and I feel alive like never before…Thanks to my tremendously talented team for making it happen for me.”

“P.S all those who care about me please know that I’m in a safe place now … I would have not shared all this if I wasn’t …please don’t worry, I only need your blessings and love.”

The actress will be seen playing former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in ‘Emergency’.

The film, directed by Kangana, also stars Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhry, Vishak Nair, Satish Kaushik, Milind Soman and Shreyas Talpade in prominent roles.

Kangana also has Sarwesh Mewara’s ‘Tejas’, in which she will be seen portraying the role of an Indian Air force pilot. Her film ‘The Incarnation: Sita’ is in pipeline.

Reel World Reels Under Pressure-A Special Report

0

Not just newspapers but even movies do come under heavy criticism for the content—sometimes from the governments, at times from the public and seldom from religious organisations—that try and seize the independence of those film makers who hold mirror up to the society. Right from yesteryear’s Gokul Shankar to India’s Daughter, countless dramas that have close resemblance to socio-economic issues of the society were shunned.

[pullquote position=”left”]A filmmaker has almost the same freedom as a novelist has when he buys himself some paper–Stanley Kubrick[/pullquote].

The first film that came under the scanner in India was Gokul Shankar, which was released in 1959. The movie apparently projected the behaviour of Naturam Godse. Garam Hawa was a realistic movie that portrayed the lives of a Muslim family during the partition of India.  Indira Gandhi was really upset with Aandhi movie, which was released in 1975 when financial emergency was proclaimed by her. The movie was banned. Janata Government had, however, lift the ban later.

Another movie that came on the similar lines was Kissa Kursi Ka (1977), which was a spoof on Indira Gandhi and Sanjay Gandhi. The loyalists of Sanjay Gandhi burnt all the master copies of the movie.Hollywood movie Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) was banned as the government felt that the movie showed Indian culture in bad light.Bandit Queen, released in 1994, was banned by Delhi High Court when Poolam Devi, the subject of the movie, challenged the authenticity of the content.

Hawayein movie that was released in 2003 projected the situation of Sikhs during 1984 massacre. The movie was banned in Delhi, Haryana, Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir.Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love was initially not allowed to exhibit in India due to its sexual content. However, the movie was subject to several cuts and Indian version contained two minutes of nudity.When Fire movie was released in 1996, director Deepa Mehta received critical appreciation. The movie, however, came under severe attack as Hindu fundamentalists attacked theatres and the film was withdrawn.

Released in 2004,Final Solution depicted  the tales of people during 2002 Godhra riots.  The movie was banned by the Censor Board citing provocative content.Water movie faced severe opposition the moment movie went on floors. The Hindu fundamentalists destroyed sets of the movie and Uttar Pradesh Government finally decided to ban the movie shooting in 2000. After so many hiccups, the movie was released in 2007. However, it’s still a question if the movie was released in India theatres.

Recently, the NDA Government banned BBC’s documentary India’s Daughter over alleged negative sentiment. The movie was, however, uploaded to Youtube. While these are some official bans, there’s nothing more than their hero’s image for hysteric fans who choose cinema theatres to vent out their anger when their favourite actors essay characters that receive slaps from soft-gender. Well, it happens in India, Though we have fundamental right—Freedom of Speech and Expression, there are thousand other acts to corner real movies.

That’s probably how producers are now concerned only about money making and directors are making movies that have all commercial elements—heroism, punch dialogues, item songs, action scenes, comedy and a pinch of emotional factor. Nonetheless, the people out there who choose film as a medium to convey a powerful message, will continue to make meaningful movies.
