Earlier, while talking about the delay in the release date of her film, Kangana told ANI, “I know how I made this film. I did not get any support from the film industry. It's made on a huge budget. I, along with Zee and other partners, created Emergency, and now with the release delay, everyone is bearing a huge loss. Delay release is a loss for all. I think the Censor Board should take the responsibility to release this film at the earliest.”

Meanwhile, directed and written by Ranaut, the film is backed by Zee Studios and Manikarnika Films. Emergency will stream on Netflix after its theatrical run.
