Kangana Ranaut's upcoming political-drama Emergency underwent many challenges as the CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification) had objected to certain sensitive sequences from the film.

The actor confirmed the same on her Instagram stories and thanked her followers.

Kangana agreed for cuts in Emergency

Kangana had recently agreed to add some cuts suggested by the censor board. During a hearing at Bombay High Court, for a petition by Zee Studios, the co-producers of Emergency, the CBFC told that Kangana had agreed to the suggestions of the board's revising committee. The plea was filed after the film got in the middle of a stir with some people calling for a ban of the project over misrepresentation of the Sikh community.
