I had wanted to post this last week after we watched this movie. But I was too busy with some Poly meetings that it slipped my mind. I wonder if the movie is still screening in the cinemas. Because I strongly recommend you to watch this movie.
Yes, the storyline is about this boy who came from the slum and managed to win the Mumbai's "Who Wants to be a Millionair?" gameshow. Old topic, you would say? Nah, it may be based on some gameshow story but have you wondered how this orphan from Mumbai slum managed to answer all the questions in the gameshow and win the money? This is where the interesting part is. Because for all the questions asked (except the ones he uses the lifelines), he knew the answers based on his life experiences. Of course, to please the massess, there is also the love element between him and his childhood sweetheart.
I shan't divulge too much details here. But the life of a slumdog (as the movie calls it) was made so real in the movie. I believe the part on the syndicate running the children beggars is all too true that it'll send chills down your heart when you watch it.
