<span class=normal>Amitabh Bachchan jumping from a building in Main Azaad Hoon<br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Perhaps the biggest example of it all is closer home with Abhisheks dad, Mr. Bachchan, too taking a similar risk in Main Azaad Hoon a couple of decades back. Not so young any more but definitely promising to be angry, he went quieter and subtle as a street pauper in Main Azaad Hoon. That too was acceptable for the audience as they had seen their hero rising from the ashes in countless flicks over the years gone by. However, when Bachchan didnt even slap anyone or indulge in a verbal duel, they were surprised whether the film was for real. Later, in the concluding reel, when he actually committed suicide without doing anything that was in conventional sense herogiri, the film lost its plot. It stayed true to its theme but in the bargain it led to severely discontented audience. Yeh aise kaise mar gaya bina kuch kiye, was the common sentiment. The same held good for the film as well which was a letdown commercially.</span>
