Mahima Chaudhry to play a crucial part in 'Emergency' movie. Check out what it is

Pupul Jayakar, a cultural activist and author, will be portrayed by actor Mahima Chaudhry in the movie 'Emergency'. She explained that Pupul Jayakar was a childhood friend of Indira Gandhi, who also wrote her autobiography, therefore her scenes are particularly the ones where audience will get to see the great leader's non-political side.

Kangana Ranaut will portray former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the movie, and Anupam Kher will portray renowned leader J.P. Narayan. Atal Bihari Vajpayee, the late politician, who held the position of prime minister for three times, will be portrayed by Shreyas Talapade.

Mahima, who will potray Pupul Jayakar, said that working along with Kangana Ranaut will prove to be a great experience since she dons so many hats with ease. The character of Indira Gandhi will be an important one. The movie is directed and produced by Kangana Ranaut herself. Mahima continued that she gets a lot of strength by watching her and how she functions.





Since Pupul Jayakar was Indira Gandhi's childhood friend, her sequences are the ones in which you can get the glimpse of the legendary leader's non-political personality, as per Mahima Chaudhry. Both of them were very open and honest, and one will get to see Gandhi from an entirely different angle. For Mahima, it has been very interesting and wonderful experience!

Kangana gave more details about Pupul Jayakar and said she was the one who wrote Indira Gandhi’s autobiography.

She was the one in whom Gandhi confided with everything. The characterisation of Pupul Jayakar serves as the link that ties the audience to Gandhi's personal life and runs through the entire movie.

The movie is a first-hand account. The narrator isn't a character in the movie. The most heartfelt conversations involve Gandhi and Pupul. Kangana added that the movie clarifieed how she revealed her darkest and most intimate secrets to Pupul Jayakar. Due to this, her character in the movie 'Emergency' becomes significant.
