The wait is finally over. Kangana Ranaut’s highly anticipated political drama, Emergency, is all set to hit theaters tomorrow, January 17. As the buzz around the film continues to grow, fans and critics alike are speculating about its box office performance. Can Kangana’s latest outing deliver a blockbuster opening and rewrite her box office history?

What the Predictions Say About Emergency’s First-Day Earnings

Directed by Kangana herself, Emergency brings the controversial period of India’s Emergency in 1975 to the big screen. According to early box office predictions, the film is expected to rake in an impressive ₹3-5 crores on its opening day, judging by its advance bookings.

If the movie does manage to meet these expectations, it could become a turning point for Kangana’s box office streak, which has been on shaky ground with her past few films.

Box Office Track Record: Kangana’s Last Five Films

Tejas – ₹1.20 crores

Dhaakad – ₹55 lakhs

Thalaivi – ₹32 lakhs

Panga – ₹2.70 crores

Judgemental Hai Kya – ₹4.50 crores

Looking at the numbers, it’s clear that Kangana hasn’t had a standout box office performance in recent times. However, Emergency has the potential to break the streak, with a strong storyline and a stellar ensemble cast working in its favor.

What to Expect from Emergency’s Storyline

Emergency features Kangana in the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. The film portrays the tumultuous period when the Emergency was declared across India in 1975, highlighting its impact on the nation’s democracy.

The movie also boasts an impressive cast, including Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, Mahima Chaudhary, and Milind Soman, each playing pivotal roles in this gripping political drama.

The Competition

While Emergency promises a solid start, it faces competition at the box office from Azad, starring Ajay Devgn’s nephew Aman Devgn, which releases on the same day.
