Earlier, Punjab's independent MP Sarbjit Singh Khalsa has objected to the scenes shown in the trailer. He said that Sikhs have been portrayed in a wrong way in it. He has written a letter to the central government demanding to stop the release of the film.
Sarbjit Singh Khalsa said, 'There are reports of Sikhs being portrayed in a wrong way in the new film 'Emergency', which can lead to deterioration of peace and law and order situation in the society. If Sikhs are shown as separatists or terrorists in this film, then it is a deep conspiracy.
This film is a psychological attack which the government should pay attention to beforehand and stop inciting hatred against Sikhs in other countries.'
Sarabjit Singh Khalsa is the son of Beant Singh. Beant Singh was involved in the assassination of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
MP Sarbjit Khalsa alleges that an attempt has been made to portray Sikhs as terrorists.
The film will spread hatred
MP Sarbjit Khalsa has said that news of hate attacks on Sikhs keep coming out frequently in the country. In such a situation, this film will work to spread more hatred towards Sikhs. Sikhs have made huge sacrifices for this country, which have not been fully revealed through films, but every possible effort is being made to defame Sikhs.

The film Aandhi was banned in 1975
Earlier, in 1975, the film Aandhi was banned by the Indira Gandhi government during the Emergency. The film was released shortly before the Emergency, which caused sleepless nights for the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and Congress leaders. The film was accused of tarnishing the image of the Congress party. After the film was banned, lead actress Suchitra Sen never appeared in any Hindi film.
There were rumours that the film was based on Indira Gandhi's relationship with her ex-husband, but the truth was that Suchitra Sen played the role of Aarti Devi, whose look was inspired by Indira Gandhi. It was later released in 1977 after the Janata Party came to power.
