Slumdog Millionaire

Recently I watched the movie “Slumdog Millionaire”,which has won a number of awards, including four Golden Globe Awards for Best Motion Picture - Drama, Best Director - Motion Picture (Danny Boyle ), Best Screenplay (Simon Beaufoy) and Best Original Score (A. R.Rahman).This has been dubbed to Hindi too.This is based on the novel “ Q and A” by Indian author and diplomat Vikas Swarup.

Movie tells the story of a young man from the slums of Mumbai participating in a game show “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire”(Kaun Banega Crorepati)and winning there.The questions whatever has been asked on that show is related to his life,so he was able to give the answer and no doubt luck was in his favour .Love story and Comedy augmented sweetness in this movie, the sequence of questions and young man’s past life has been presented well………As a whole the movie is fantastic but……It’s quite imaginative ….10% of the movie is in “Hindi” as boy belongs to the Slum but he speaks English fluently later, which is not possible practically for a slum boy . Anyways Its a breathless, exciting story and I am sure you all will love it. Do not miss it.

One of the dialogues in that movie is : “You don’t have to be a genius to be successful” (said by the young man)…….. I liked that the most. Because it is true, to be successful its important to have the right attitude, at the right place, in the right time.
