Mrunal also urged everyone to watch the film in theatres. Sharing her experience of watching the film, Mrunal wrote, "I just watched Emergency in theaters with my father, and I’m still reeling from the experience! As a huge fan of Kangana Ranaut, I’ve been eagerly awaiting to witness this film on big screens and IT WAS A MASTERPIECE."

"From Gangster to Queen to Tanu weds Manu to Manikarnika, Thalaivi and now Emergency, Kangana has consistently pushed boundaries and inspired me with her incredible talent. This film is no exception - the attention to detail, the camera work, costumes, and performances are all top-notch! Kangana, you’ve outdone yourself as a director! My favorite scene…The army officer’s poignant moment with the binoculars, transitioning to the other side of the river bank and capturing the emotion perfectly," she added.

Further praising the film and the actress, Mrunal wrote, "The screenplay, dialogues, music, and editing are all seamless and engaging. I loved seeing Shreyas ji , Mahima ji, Anupam Sir, and Satish Ji, Milind Sir shine in their roles - every actor brought their A-game! Kangana, you’re not just an actor; you’re a true artist and inspiration. Your courage in taking on challenging roles is admirable, and your dedication to your craft is evident in every frame. If you haven’t seen #Emergency yet, please do yourself a favor and quickly catch it in theaters! It’s a must-watch for every Indian, and I guarantee you’ll leave inspired, motivated, and even a little tearful."

Mrunal compared Kangana to Indira Gandhi and called the BJP MP 'one of the most gifted, talented and courageous actress of Indian cinema'.
