The actress said it in passing and revealed the Congress MP's reaction on being told of the movie. After being taken aback a little, Priyanka Gandhi was ready to share 'facts about Emergency' that Kangana might probably not know. She further asked Gandhi to watch the movie, hoping she might like it. The response she got was 'hmm.'

Kangana also offered Rahul Gandhi an opportunity to watch the movie and revealed that he simply smirked in response. The actress was smitten by Priyanka's poise and called her gracious, in comparison to Rahul Gandhi.

About Emergency and the current Gandhi family

Priyanka Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi are Indira Gandhi's grandchildren. Their mother Sonia Gandhi plays an important role in the running political party efficiently since their father Rajiv Gandhi's sudden demise. The then-PM was assassinated by a suicide bomber back in 1991, during his rally in Tamil Nadu.

Emergency is inspired by Pupul Jayakar's autobiography. The movie stars Anupam Kher as Jayaprakash Narayan, Shreyas Talpade as young Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Milind Soman as Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw, Mahima Choudhary as Pupul Jayakar, and the late Satish Kaushik as Jagjivan Ram.
