Veteran actor Anupam Kher will be acting in Kangana Ranaut’s upcoming directorial ‘Emergency’. He will be essaying the role of social activist and politician JP Narayan in this political drama.
Announcing his 527th film, the veteran actor had shared on Instagram, “Happy and proud to essay the role of the man who questioned fearlessly, a rebel in the truest sense of the word.”
Earlier this month, a short video from the film introduced the audience to Kangana Ranaut’s Indira Gandhi. Ranaut is also directing the film. Her banner Manikarnika Films is producing Emergency.
Emergency is presumably set during the 21 month period from 1975-1977, that has often been dubbed as one of the darkest periods of independent India. Indira Gandhi was the Prime Minister of the country at the time.
