What Was Life Really Like?
The Emergency ended, elections were called, and Indians delivered a stunning verdict — throwing out Indira Gandhi's Congress in favour of the Janata Party coalition. It was democracy's finest hour. People wept with relief and joy at polling stations.
Amar Akbar Anthony was the cheerful, chaotic blockbuster that matched the mood of liberation. Amitabh Bachchan played all three of the lead roles' friends, effortlessly commanding the screen. India felt free again.
