"My heart is full of gratitude and wherever I go people ask me about Emergency’s release date. We have announced Emergency release date as 24th November 2023 but because of all the changes in my back to back releasing films calendar and over packed last quarter of 2024 we have decided to shift Emergency to next year (2024). New release date will be announced soon, please bear with us, your anticipation, curiosity and excitement for the film means a lot. Yours truly Kangana Ranaut," she added.

Emergency centers around the life of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and is billed as the story of a watershed moment in the political history of India. The film features Kangana in the titular role, while Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, and Vishak Nair portray significant roles in the movie.
