Certainly his humble behaviour is a feather in his cap. Rahman you made india proud. keep up ur work!
Its one of the most over hyped film..This type of masala movie are very common in india...Its only because everything bad about Indians have been shown for which foreigners are liking it...There are many Indians who are liking this film???How on earth they??its prooved that normal indian masses are nothing but fools who runs after anything that is hyped and everything that is praised in the West

you should first watch the movie. the movie is a MUST watch movie. excellently directed, very well acted. i think indian people just cant appreciate a good cinema. we like vularity and camera going where it should go, item numers, lack of acting, no story. like singh is king, rab ne, no entry, welcome. seriously lot better than those crap.

what makes you think that it is a crap. if this is a crap then what is a good cinema in your opinion?
Over Hyped Film of the year...if some Westerner come with some they will Hyped and Accepted and our Movies Like Satya & Company and many tamil,malayalam movies are not getting any Consideration ...our people never going to change ....Watch movies like Satya,Company,Ragdebasanti & many south films of Mohanlal and Kamal Hassan they are 1000 times better & realistic than these overhyped english movies.

Seeing how good your English is I can understand why you think that English movies are overhyped. Probably you never understood them in the first place. Next time I suggest buy a DVD with Englsih subtitles and keep a dictionary handy.

Truthteller you think that English is superior to indian languages like many indians Do you know that all these european languages are came from Sanskrit including English .till people like u are slave of British .

Oright Mimoh.. U're right that English n various other languages have been derived from Sanskrit. So wats ur point? Do u speak Sanskrit? I'm certain u're one of those guys who drinks coke n downs pizza n tries to act cool in a crowd.. Wats ur problem with the English language man? Just coz someone speaks English, how do they become a Brit slave?.. n for ur info, English is not appreciated by most europeans.. its jes the brits n the scottish who mostly use the language.. India is a very tolerant nation.. its citizens are the most patient and bearing of em all.. So wen u talk poorly of other people, cultures n lifestyle, it jes goes on to show how insecure u r.. or how jealous rather ! Grow up da.. stop talkin dirt.. n yea, pls work on ur grammar, brother.

first of all, any south indian movie can't be realistic...........a movie either can be south indian or realistic.........both can't be true........just look the acting of Dev patel and then compare it with ur south actors and then u will know that in south india nobody even knows abt acting

First of all u r not a indian u r a paki and just came here to divide us. Just Watch Maniratnam,Santosh Sivan,Mohanlal,Kamal Hassan,Adoor Gopalakrishnan,MT Vasudevannair,Bala,goutham menon movies ...they are the best thats why they are getting national award for every year not for masala good for nothing bollywood films.Who had changed bollywood film to realistic its Ramgopalvarma from south cinema with movies lkike satya...who had changed Music world of bollywood its A.R Rahman who had given best cinemaphotography its south Film Technicians...

Then 99% bollywood movies are copy of tamil,malayalam,english movies.. khans & karan johar had given bad name to hindi film which was good in old times when Rajkapoor Movies where made but nothing but copycat and skinshow.
Re: Re: Re: OVER HYPING
by Truth Teller on Jan 09, 2009 07:22 PM
All these men you mentioned above are nothing when compared to Satyajit Ray .. Also these men have time and again tried to get success in Hindi. Success in Hindi/ Bollywood seems to be their ambition and that talks volume about Bollywood.

whoa.. this is a messy forum.. why this conflict regarding cinema guys? U have gud movies being made in every language in every country.. jes coz we're not aware of them, I don't think its right to finalise on our idea alone.. For every Al pacino and de eniro we have a mohanlal and kamalhaasan.. for evrry danny boyle and stanley kubrick, we have manmohan desai, mani ratnam n various other greats.. coe on guys, I think we shd appreciate good cinema n break from the shackles of regional illusions.. Slumdog Millionaire is certainly an awesome movie.. Try viwing it from a critics standpoint n u'll understand why its a great film.. Technically, for a movie to do well, it has to meet 3 things.. Story, Direction,Narration and acting together.. n thats why this movie is a winner.. Don't think that thi movie is trying to showcase the poverty in India, which is an undenaiable fact.. this is a rags to richrs story of a guy.. u can't show a middle class guy become a crorepati coz that definitely not impossible.. but a slumdog reaching the top is most surely beating the odds.. Danny Boyle has made some excellent films n this one is the best among the lot.. Watch Trainspotting, Millions n u'll know wat I mean.. In trainspotting, he has picturised Europe in a very irresponsible, selfish image..Why wud he do that inspite of bein a Brit? this movie also shows the spirit of Mumbai..of India. Watching a foreign film does not make you anti Indian.The music is also a big plus.this one is a winner

dev patel is also an indian not a paki Jocker thats good .Pakis can watch indian movies and get __ with us.
Re: Re: Re: OVER HYPING
by Aditya Krishnan on Jan 09, 2009 06:38 PM
these bollywood jockers never going to win a single nathional award and those people like saif ali khan and anil kapooor winning national award for best actors for hum tum and pukar nothing but big joke....kamal hassan won 4 national awards and mohanlal got 5 national awards including 3 for acting ,3 for mammootty...bollywood should learn that acting or cinema is not glamour or skinshow.
Re: Re: Re: Re: OVER HYPING
by Aditya Krishnan on Jan 09, 2009 06:45 PM
our people should realise that Oscar or any other international award is not something greater than anything than ours its another american movie award...many great films are coming out from other nations including india but only these american movies are getting hyped due to money power of people like warner brother and others ...

What do you mean by our people ? You seem to abuse other Indians who donot appreciate South Indian films and make fun of North Indian films.
Re: Re: Re: Re: OVER HYPING

Mohanlal got 5 awards of which oly 3 for acting ? What did he win the rest of the 2 awards for? Best thunder thigh in Lungi ???

Malayalam,Bengali,Tamil films are not getting hyped because of language barrier ...english and hindi have more viewer ship but truth is best actors and movies are from Malayalam,Bengali & Tamil .Cinema have no language watch it and realise.
Bollywood fans have always known India has great actors/actresses who only needed good directors, decent production methods, and proper marketing. Let's hope "Slumdog" opens a door.

by indiarocks on Jan 09, 2009 06:32 PM
It is not what they have shown. Read the rediff review 2. I absolutely agree with the writer of that review. It is getting accolades because that is what those people in the west feel about india and by showering praises on this movie, they are trying to mock us Indians.
Re: Good movie?
by rs on Jan 09, 2009 06:41 PM
its a story abt a boy who lives in mumbai slum. they have shown the living conditions in slum. Do u think they needed to show hero living in bunglaw & driving imported cars like most hindi movies do?
Re: good movie but not a great one
by My Opinion on Jan 09, 2009 10:45 PM
its really good movie. but it doesnt make me proud at all. there is so much progress in india, but people are still struggling to meet ends.
