What Was Life Really Like?
Chennai Express was the Bollywood blockbuster — Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone on a train through South India, a love letter to Tamil culture that was welcomed across the country. The Supreme Court's ruling criminalising homosexuality — reversing a 2009 Delhi High Court ruling — was met with widespread protest from urban India. The gap between India's self-image and its legal reality was becoming harder to ignore.
The economy was slowing, and inflation was biting.
