The film has generated controversy as it depicts the emergency period in India. Reports indicate that the Bombay High Court previously directed the Censor Board to consider objections raised by Sikh bodies, groups, or individuals regarding the film's content, following its planned release on September 6.
The film is a biographical political thriller that explores the life of Indira Gandhi, focusing on the 21-month period of emergency she declared from 1975 to 1977. Ranaut portrays Indira Gandhi, alongside co-stars Shreyas Talpade, Milind Soman, Mahim Chaudhary, Anupam Kher, and Satish Kaushik, with a screenplay written by Ritesh Shah.
