Kangana Ranaut has come under controversy over her film 'Emergency'. Faridkot's independent MP Sarabjit Singh Khalsa has raised objections to this film. Sarabjit Singh wrote a long post on Facebook, in which he said that the film 'Emergency' shows the Sikh community in a wrong way, due to which problems can arise in society.

Sarabjit Singh Khalsa wrote, 'There are reports that Sikhs are being portrayed in a wrong way in the new film Emergency. Due to this, there is a fear that law and order may deteriorate in society. If Sikhs are shown as separatists and terrorists in this film, then this is a deep conspiracy. This film is a psychological attack to spread hatred against Sikhs in other countries, which the government should pay attention to and stop.'

He further wrote, 'News of hate attacks on Sikhs in the country often comes to the fore. In such a situation, this film will also work to incite hatred against the Sikh community. The Sikh community has made great sacrifices for this country, which have not been fully shown in films. But every attempt to defame Sikhs is casteism here.

Objectionable films and songs should be banned to maintain communal harmony and law and order. I always try to stop such anti-social activities by raising my voice against them to maintain peace in the society.'

Sarabjit Singh Khalsa is the son of Beant Singh. Beant Singh was one of the two bodyguards who shot dead the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on 31 October 1984 due to Operation Blue Star.

Now Kangana Ranaut is coming with her film 'Emergency'. It will show the story of the period of emergency imposed by Indira Gandhi in India in 1975, Indira's struggle and her assassination. Kangana is playing the role of Indira Gandhi. Stars like Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman and Vishak Nair have worked with her in the film. Late actor Satish Kaushik is also in an important role in this.
