‘Emergency’ review: Kangana Ranaut’s film is at war with itself

Live Mint  

There were only two things I asked of Emergency. The second was for Sam Manekshaw to call Indira Gandhi ‘sweetie’, like Vicky Kaushal does in Sam Bahadur. There’s been so much right-leaning, opposition-baiting and establishment-praising Hindi cinema in the last few years that you could create a shadow version of Emergency by editing together scenes from a dozen different historical films. Indira is installed as prime minister, but with her nervous manner and fluttering speech, is derided by opponents and party members alike as ‘goongi gudiya’. Though Sanjay is shown as the prime mover during Emergency, Indira’s self-image takes a beating—literally, as she starts seeing a zombie in the mirror.
