Apart from Kangana, the film also stars Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhry, Vishak Nair, and Shreyas Talpade.

The film’s script has been written by D-Day star Ritesh Shah and is directed by Ranaut. Talking about the movie, Kangana said, ''Emergency is one of the most significant and darkest chapters in our history that young India needs to know. It is a crucial story, and I want to thank my super-talented actors like the late Satish ji, Anupam ji, Shreyas, Mahima, and Milind for embarking on this creative journey together. I am excited to bring this extraordinary episode from India's history to the big screen. Jaihind!''

This will not be the first time when Kangana will portray the role of a politician. Before this, she portrayed the role of Tamil Nadu Prime Minister J Jayalalithaa in Thalaivii.
