In Kangana Ranaut’s film “Emergency,” actor Shreyas Talpade will portray former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
The look of Shreyas as Atal Bihari Vajpayee has been revealed on Wednesday.
In the context of the movie, Shreyas said, “Atal ji is one of the most revered, intelligent, learned, influential, and also one of the most loved leaders in India as well as across the world. To portray him on screen is not only a big privilege but also a huge honour and definitely a bigger responsibility. I hope I live up to everybody’s expectations. I am trying my best to portray the part.”
Additionally, he said, “Kangana ma’am is one of the most versatile and finest actresses in the country. She has proved it time and again. But to see her direct a film first-hand and to experience that magic first-hand is simply outstanding. She is a fantastic and magnificent director who is extremely clear in her vision and is completely sorted. It is a thing of pride to be directed by her in this huge magnum opus called Emergency. I am happy and delighted. Best wishes to the entire team. It’s time for Emergency. “
Kangna will portray former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Anupam Kher, a Padma Bhushan awardee, will also be sharing the screen with Kangna and Shreyas. He will be portraying Bharat Ratna laureate Jayaprakash Narayan in the movie.
Taking about her directions, Kangna said, “My last directorial was Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi, and I got an encouraging response from the audience as it was a blockbuster. I was tempted to direct another film, but I had many acting assignments to complete. I do believe that I know the pulse of the audience from my interviews, my quotes, and the terms that I have coined are now part of pop culture (she laughs). I do believe that the audience is looking for something that will stimulate their intellectual side and not just their sensual side.”
“Emergency,” which Kangana Ranaut both authored and directed, is being aired by Manikarnika Films. The movie’s producers are Renu Pitti and Kangana Ranaut. The script and dialogue were both written by Ritesh Shah.
