Kangana Ranaut, who has been running from pillar to post for the release of her film ‘Emergency', has breathed a sigh of relief as her film has been granted a censor certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
On Thursday, the actress took to the Stories section of her Instagram, and shared the update with her followers, as she wrote, “We have received the certificate for our movie ‘Emergency', we will be announcing the release date soon, thank you for your patience and support. @manikarnikafilms @zeestudiosofficial @nishantpitti”.
The film has been caught up in controversy as it follows the story of former prime minister Indira Gandhi, the period of Emergency, and how she was assassinated by her own bodyguards.
Last month, the Bombay High Court had ordered the Censor Board to decide any representations by Sikh bodies, groups or individuals who had objections to the September 6 release of the film.
The examining committee of CBFC had cleared the film for a ‘UA' certification, on the condition that the filmmakers make three cuts and provide factual sources for controversial historical statements.
