Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has congratulated the entire team of "Slumdog" but neither he -- nor the superfine stupidos running the PMO -- had any thing to say about the 39 minute real life docu-drama, "Smile Pinki" by Megan Mylan, which is in Hindi, and highlights the work of Dr Subodh Kumar Singh whose The Smile Train performs simple surgeries that turn poor children born with a cleft lip into smiling faces.
Wo Man Woe !
This is a hugely deserved accolate for this team. Hope their work is highlighted every where (and by Rediff) and brings in the required donations for this cause.

PMO has many other things to do than sending best wishes to all the Oscal winners. PMO sent best wishes to the Indian crew of SDM, while Smile Pinki was mostly American crew. Before this another documentary on India also won Oscars, it was "born is brothels" made by a german director.

Sweety,
Like Megan Mylan I too would like "to be inspired by the simple idea that the better we know each other, the better this world is" without the likes of you who want free publicity.
It's folks like Dr.Singh who need to be given the Padma awards unlike people like Jaya Bachan or Jayaprada...atleast Rahul Gandhi should initiate this to prove his worth....
