The series begins with The 90s Exposed: From Nelson Mandela’s prison release and the rise of Bill Clinton to the birth of the “virtual world”, a star-studded cast explores the most iconic moments, people and innovations of the 1990s. The climax of the series will be a 2-part India special- “The 90s- India Rediscovered” and “The 90s- The Great Indian Dream” that dives deep to unfold India’s transformation, filled with emotion, tragedy and drama.
