Kangana Ranaut said she is ‘still waiting for the certification from censor board’ as she announced her first solo directorial Emergency won't release today.

On Friday, Kangana Ranaut tweeted that her most-awaited project Emergency, which has been mired in controversies, has been postponed. The movie, in which the actor and BJP MP portrays former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, was initially slated for release on September 6. She thanked fans for their 'understanding and patience' as she shared the news with 'a heavy heart'.

Kangana took to X (formerly Twitter) and said, "With a heavy heart I announce that my directorial Emergency has been postponed, we are still waiting for the certification from censor board, new release date will be announced soon, thanks for your understanding and patience (folded hand emoji)." The film also stars Anupam Kher and the late Satish Kaushik.

An X user reacted to Kangana's announcement, tweeting, "No need to feel sad Kangana Ranaut. We are with you, whenever it releases we will be watching it for sure and will be supporting you no matter what!!"

Another said, "Don't get bogged down sister. Fight against people, injustice. Always with people who seek justice." Someone also said, "Release this movie Kangana, we are with you..." Some seemed to not mind the delay in the film's release. One tweeted, "Super disaster movie."
