About 20 minutes into Sonakshi Sinha's Akira, there's a protest sequence in front of the Asiatic Steps in Mumbai. The sequence encompasses all the elements from a college protest - a mob of students, a few havaldars, a nostril-flaring sub-inspector animatedly yelling into the walkie-talkie about how he needs tear gas, stones, and finally a gunshot that disperses the crowd. As the crowd is dispersed, we see Sonakshi Sinha ( the hero) still seated in the middle of a now-deserted road. She walks towards the cops in slow-motion with heavily distorted electric guitars blazing in the background.
