‘AMAR AKBAR ANTHONY’ IN UK AMUSE NETIZENS
THERE have been jokes online about Rishi Sunak becoming the new UK prime minister, including many about 10 Downing Street turning into an Indian house in different ways, but perhaps the cleverest was connected to a Bollywood film. A social media user pointed out that London mayor Sadiq Khan is Muslim, the prime minister is Hindu, and the new king (Charles) is a Christian, so likened it to Amar Akbar Anthony, where the main protagonists are from different faiths. The joke went viral and triggered photos of the three UK leaders on the 1977 classic’s poster.
