Kangana Ranaut will be headlining the film Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, the makers announced on Tuesday. Written and directed by ad filmmaker Manoj Tapadia, the film is a "cinematic tribute to the unsung heroes" that "aims to spotlight the invaluable contributions of the working-class, who work tirelessly behind the scenes," according to the makers.
The makers shared photos with Kangana on social media to make the announcement. It marks the debut of Babita Ashiwal (Eunoia Films India) and Adi Sharmaa (Floating Rocks Entertainment) as producers. "Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata promises to resonate deeply with audiences, inspiring a sense of hope, courage, and resilience,” said the makers on social media. More details about the film are awaited.
Meanwhile, the release date of Kangana’s political drama Emergency has been postponed after it faced criticisms from Sikh groups across the country. It was earlier scheduled to be released on September 6, but wasn't passed by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
Kangana plays the role of former prime minister Indira Gandhi in the film, who had invoked Emergency in the country from June 1975 to March 1977. The film is also directed by Kangana and stars Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, the late Satish Kaushik, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, and Vishak Nair in pivotal roles.
