Kangana Ranaut has introduced yet another character from her forthcoming directorial ‘Emergency’. Sharing a new poster from the movie, the actress uncovered that Mahima Chaudhry will be portraying the character of author Pupul Jayakar in the engaging narrative.
Speaking about this character, Kangana Ranaut shared, “Pupul Jayakar was an author, a very close friend of Mrs Gandhi and has also written her autobiography. Mrs Gandhi confided in her about everything. If there is one thread that runs through the film and connects the audiences to the inner world of Mrs Gandhi, then it’s the character of Pupul Jayakar. Even though the film is a first-person account, it is not a film where somebody is the narrator. Mrs Gandhi’s interactions with Pupul are the most soulful. They shed light on how she confided her deepest darkest secrets to Pupul Jayakar. This makes her character an important person in the film called Emergency.”
‘Emergency’ stars Kangana in the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, while Anupam Kher will be seen as the revolutionary leader J P Narayan and Shreyas Talpade portrays the character of late politician Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Kangana isn’t simply helming this movie, but is producing the venture with Renu Pitti. The screenplay and dialogues of ‘Emergency’ are written by Ritesh Shah. Previously, Kangana Ranaut had clarified that ‘Emergency’ is not a biopic but a political drama.
