Initially, when the film was announced, it was revealed that Sai Kabir will be writing and directing it. However, this was only based on a brief conversation that Sai Kabir had with Kangana, whose brainchild the film was. Later, when Sai began working on the film, he realised that he wishes to work on another film he penned and isn't inclined to write a political subject which Kangana wanted him to write for Emergency.
Hence, it was decided that Sai Kabir will be directing Tiku Weds Sheru for a big streaming platform that is backed by Kangana's Manikarnika Films and that the actress will be helming Emergency. Not just this, Kangana will also be joining forces with Dhaakad writer Ritesh Shah for the screenplay, dialogue, story writer of Emergency. With so much happening, Kangana's second directorial, Emergency is scheduled to go on floors in January 2022. Meanwhile, fans of the actress are aware of her adulation for the iconic leader Indira Gandhi and hence, are looking forward to seeing the actress step in her shoes on the screen.
