If you had, one chance, one opportunity, would you take it? … or just let it slip by?

If, there were to be a film produced, named “The Real Slumdog Millionaire” by a very renowned and internationally recognized Indian director with a strong script and sureness of entry into the Oscars on the mainstream. Everything well planned and foolproof!

How much would u contribute if u had one month’s deadline?

Think and answer… I’ll be looking forward for your replies. Thank you!

This movie won many oscars because the academy members like to consider themselves liberal, left and intellectual, which they are not really, because they can not pinpoint what Slumdog Millionaire is really about, they think it’s this popular rags to riches story and why not give India some attention? After all, we colonized it once. The academy misses out that Slumdog Millionaire is in fact a movie with a hidden political agenda. This agenda contains a lot of criticism against western world itself, projected on people in India. The movie’s story has no connection with India whatsoever. Off course India has slums, but it’s not about slums eighter and it’s defenity not about how people think in India. The movie deals with western world’s own obsession about money, greedyness, oppressing guildfeelings towards the poor and so on. This movie almost make me puke.

Agree with Kate. Anyway, it was a ‘story’ based on some real facts about life there, but it never claimed to be a fully factual money. If we go logical, benjamin button ain’t that logical too.
Definitely agree there have been better movies too. Lagaan and Wednesday would be a must see on my list. Parzania too (this one is based on true moments)

It was , in a way, unrealistic.
I mean, how can a chaiwala who’s never been to school end up talking in fluent English and operating a computer?
Plus its humanly impossible for anyone to vividly remember what happened to him before 5-6 years ago and someone who’s never driven a car before race along the streets, that too of a progressive, metropolitan city with such ease.

actually he was on the show so that he could get Latika to see him, not to win the money. mind you, he wasnt jumping for joy when he won.

yes the world is full of violence, just this week sri lanka’s cricket team were targeted in pakistan. a few months back a nun was raped by hindu extremist in front of the police who did nothing. we cannot run from the issue of the world.

his brother sold his amitabh bachan for money is nothing. my brother kicked my mouth and i lost a tooth when i was 10 years old when i played loudly and he was woken up. life is not fair.

he’s not a genius through, that’s why he used one of his lifeline as he didn’t know what was written under india’s flag.

i guess you didn’t put much attention while watching as there was a part when jamal told the police, i didnt ask them to ask me those questions. they ask me questions which i know the answer to.
