Thirty one years ago I came to India as a bride of Rajiv Gandhi. And now I will spend my life till my last in this country and nobody can take away this right from me', the statement shows her real love for India.
Sonia Gandhi suffered two heavy blows in her life. The first was the assassination of late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and then the sad and brutal assassination of her husband and the former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi by the Tamil militants. Though she had accompanied Rajiv Gandhi in all his campaigns, she never took interest in the politics. Since Rajiv Gandhi's death, Sonia Gandhi led a life of near recluse for six years but for her appearances at a few official functions. But a number of Congress leaders and supporters looking for a charismatic personality to lead the party to electoral success kept sending their appeals to her to come and take over the party.
The Congress faced a big electoral setback after the Narasimha Rao regime and many people had started to write-off the Congress. The pressure to revive Congress party started increasing. She finally acceded to join politics in 1997. In 1998 she was elected as the leader of the Congress Party. She proved herself as an efficient Parliamentarian and she took on NDA.

For Sonia Gandhi politics is not the means to attain power but a medium to serve the people. It became abundantly evident as she turned down the post of Prime Minister despite having led the UPA to victory in 2004 general elections. The movie on Congress President and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi covers all aspects of her life. Be it her political thought or career, marriage with Rajiv Gandhi, her emergence as an effective Congress leader, her love for India and her compassion for poor all of it is nicely strung together in the movie.
