Bollywood does an effortless job of bringing us closer to the real-life heroes, including Indias political leaders who shaped the country. As we remember Indira Gandhi on her 107th birth anniversary, lets take a look at actresses who played the role of former Indian Prime Minister on screen.
1. Kangana Ranaut
Kangana Ranaut looks impeccable, as she has stepped into the shoes of Indira Gandhi for her film Emergency. The trailer for the same was released a day before independence day 2024, and it has already taken the internet by storm.
2. Flora Jacob
The actress, who recently starred in Jawan, has played the role of Indira Gandhi twice. Once in Ajay Devgn's Raid (2018) and then in the 2021 release Thalaivi, which also starred Kangana Ranaut.Both of these were politically driven movies that made her role necessarily relevant.
3. Supriya Vinod
The popular television actor donned the role of the former Indian prime minister for the film Indu Sarkar. What happens when the wife of a government employee finds out his not-so-pure intentions towards the country? Will she choose her family or her duty as a doted citizen?
4) Lara Dutta
Lara Dutta was unrecognizable in Bell Bottom as she played the character of Indira Gandhi. The makeup made her look perfect for the part. The 2021 patriotic drama also starred Akshay Kumar and Vaani Kapoor in pivotal roles.
