More trouble for Kangana Ranaut’s ’emergency’ after Shiromani Committee calls for ban in Punjab: ‘spitting poison’

Kangana Ranaut’s ‘Emergency’ faces more challenges ahead of its release as the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has vowed not to let the film release in the state. The biopic on Prime Minister Indira Gandhi may face more problems after the SGPC passed a resolution demanding a ban on the “controversial film”.

The committee accuses the producers of misrepresenting the community and misrepresenting historical facts. The film is awaiting a green signal from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), which imposed strict censorship by issuing a U/A certification and asked filmmakers to make 13 changes.

SGPC chief Harjinder Singh Dhami said: “Apart from defaming the Sikhs, Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale has been portrayed in a bad light in the film, which the community cannot tolerate.”

He added, “This film has been made with the spirit of spewing venom and spreading hatred against the community as part of the anti-Sikh agenda. We will not allow it to be shown in Punjab.” ABP reported.
