#Emergency is a good & well balanced film.
I was too harsh on an artist Kangana Ranaut.
She deserves national award for fooling RW sanghis.🤣
Well, the 1971 war sequence could be more better.
Now I came to know why Modi was not allowing this film to be released.😭 pic.twitter.com/HW7rqJDTRj

While Taran Adarsh called the film gripping:
#OneWordReview…#Emergency: GRIPPING.
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️½
Chronicles an important chapter from history, elevated by #KanganaRanaut‘s fantastic performance… Some terrific dramatic moments stay with you… Docu-drama approach and abrupt / rushed conclusion of few episodes dilute… pic.twitter.com/pbLzwdfvwS— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) January 17, 2025
