Government had taken Amitabh’s help to save from solar eclipse
In fact, when a solar eclipse occurred in India 44 years ago, the government was very worried about it. People were not allowed to leave their homes on the day of the solar eclipse. To avoid the dangerous rays of the sun, the government had appealed to the entire countrymen to stay at home on that day. But the government was afraid that people would walk out. For this he adopted a method which really worked.
