The ‘Queen’ of Bollywood, who shone as ‘Jhansi ki raani’ in ‘Manikarnika’ took the role of India’s former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the movie ‘Emergency.’ Showcasing one of the most sensitive chapters of India’s historical and political landscape, the movie made it to the big screens on January 17, 2025.

The movie is now close to its two-week run at the theatres and has crossed Rs.17 crore mark.
