Screening of Kangana Ranaut's 'Emergency' cancelled in theatres across Punjab following protests

New Indian Express  

CHANDIGARH: The cinemas and multiplexes across Punjab on Friday were forced to cancel the screening of Kangana Ranaut-starrer Emergency following protests by various Sikh organization and farmers' bodies. The film’s release was earlier delayed after the Central Board of Film Certification sought several cuts in the movie after Sikh groups raised concerns over the portrayal of the community. In a letter to Mann, SGPC President Harjinder Singh Dhami said the movie was a “calculated attempt to distort history and harm Sikh sentiments” and warned that releasing it could provoke outrage within the Sikh community. The members of one of the factions of farmer union BKU gathered outside Dhillon Plaza and Cosmo Plaza in Zirakpur in SAS Nagar district near Chandigarh and protested alleging that Kangana Ranaut used vulgar language against them during the ongoing farmers' protest and in the movie, facts have been twisted to defame the Sikh community.
