Detailing the reason, the actor said, last time when Karan Johar was elated ahead of the release of her directorial debut Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi in 2019, the worst smear campaign of her life was unleashed.

Kangana shared, “Ha ha last time when he said he was excited to see Manikarnika, the worse smear campaign of my life was unleashed upon me on its releasing weekend … almost all main actors working in the film were paid to sling mud on me and sabotage the film and suddenly the most successful weekend of my life was turned in to a living nightmare for me … Ha ha I am scared now very scared … because he is excited again …”

Karan was asked about making films on political scenarios at the Express Adda event. He said, “The Emergency is being made and I am excited to watch it.”

Kangana plays former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in her directorial 'Emergency'. The film is scheduled to release in November 2023.
