Kangana Ranaut is busy with the promotions of her upcoming film Emergency. In a recent interview with India Today, Kangana shared about Indira Gandhi. She also shared wheather we can compartmentalize her as ‘good’ or ‘bad.’ She said that a ‘close comparison of her film can be made with Oppenheimer.
Kangana when asked on doing a film on such a topic, she said, “I don’t know why people are so uncomfortable with truth. As if it does not stand there glaring at us evidently, and so obviously. To me Ms. Gandhi is what she is and we cannot compartmentalize people as ‘good’ or ‘bad’. If you look from that perspective this film will open many doors for you but at the same time, a close comparison to draw with my film is maybe Oppenheimer.” Also Read – Is Kangana Ranaut Selling Her Mumbai Home and Permanently Moving to Mandi?

She further explained, “You can’t really decide whether to root for him, whether he is getting manipulated or he is manipulative. But aren’t all of us like that? Life is not so limited. It demands you to be so much and at times to be the person you don’t want to be. That is why I call it a Shakespearean tragedy. It is so much like Macbeth. Macbeth was destined to be the king, and when he becomes the king by killing the king the dagger follows him. His conscience follows him… The idea of Emergency is that the best of us can become a victim of hubris.”
Oppenheimer is by Christopher Nolan is set during World War II. The movie follows physicist J Robert Oppenheimer portrayed by Cillian Murphy, known as the Father of the Atomic Bomb. It is set during a period in history when he feared that testing the atomic bomb would ignite the atmosphere and destroy the world, yet he pushed the button anyway. J Robert Oppenheimer helped invent nuclear weapons during World War II. Earlier this year, the movie won 7 Oscars which included Best Picture, and Best Director awards.
