Why Million blessings to Slumdog...

Slumdog Millionaire scored 8 Oscars this year... seems everybody is happy and proud of it but i am not...
the story is about a boy who lives in slums of Mumbai and won a million in a game show...
well lets come to the reality first...
the kids,elders and everybody who is residing in Slums are speaking 'English' so fluently that even our so call high class society can't speak like that... the people who are living in slums especially in Mumbai can't speak Hindi properly forget about English...they only speak Marathi...thats it...
and the Jury love this movie...and the crowd of India is getting mad about it...India is a country where everyone is following each other...they don't know whom are they following, why are they following...but still...they are doing it...
Foreign Director showed the poverty and dirty side of India and he got the awards...the main reason for getting so many awards are the foreigners across the globe love this side of India...they only wanna see the poor and their conditions so that they can laugh about it...
the music is also chartbuster but my ears disliked it... but i am very happy for A.R. Rehman as he is my favourite singer and music composer..
I give full credit to Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra for making Rang de Basanti...the music,the direction, everything was just amazing... but we are mass followers and will never learn to appreciate our own things...
other than this, the movies which i found really good in recent years are... Taare Zameen Par, Lagey Raho Munna Bhai , A Wednesday etc etc... these kinda movies should represent India...

Go Indian Public...

Rightly said..the only reason it got entry into Oscars is due to his production house (FOX) and director...so I consider this movie as more of 'international' rather than Indian....

BUT..

on other hand, I like the direction, screenplay, background score, cinematography, concept and acting of actors...
So I would suggest, go and watch this movie keeping the Oscars aura aside..!!!
