Bhandarkar, who has helmed films like "Fashion", "Page 3" and "Heroine", tweeted on Monday: "After months of research and meeting politicians, journalists, photographers,authors and common man from the emergency era finally... The script 'Indu Sarkar'."
The movie is reportedly based on the Emergency era, a 21-month long period from 1975 to 1977, when Prime Minister Indira Gandhi unilaterally had declared a state of Emergency across the country.
The details about the film's cast and story are still under wraps.
