The only people raking in millions are no slumdogs, but makers of this exploitation cinema. If they have any human decency, they should donate the proceeds of this movie to improve the conditions in slums.
BTW, Anil Kapoor has donated his fees for such a cause. Danny Boyle team should do the same. They already earned the name and fame, so let the money go to real slumdogs. Lets see who is really cheating in this game of making millions
this implicating anil and arr instead of others who really matter indicates that this guy is a publicity monger and trying to extort through the legal blackmail
I am sure this does not stand on merits and will be quashed
Well its quite evident that the person who filed a lawsuit against AR Rahman and Anil Kapoor is not the least aware of what "Slumdog" really means and secondly, is bent upon defaming the Music Director and an Actor who didn't have anything to do with the titling of the film. The Office Bearer guy should go and get a good life instead of filing lawsuits!
This is heights of insanity. People don't appreciate the talent here, but are just going behind the hindi conversion of a word. Do they really understand the actual, literal meaning of slumdog....heights of stupidity...I just wish Judge favours slumdog millionaire...
Come on guys this is insane..this is not atall a valid case he has got the meaning of the term wrong.. next he has filed de complaint aginst de wrong person.. AR.Rahman and Anil..instead of the director and de producer.. even if he is right on dat count he should have put in de name of all other Actors involved in it..this guy need publicity and he has found a cheap and easy way to find it.. how abt suein this guy for defaming ppl who have made India proud.. ARR has won de first Golden Globe ever by and Indian and this felow files a case against ..i c it as a clear effort to defame AR.Rahman and Anil ..

When people are dying and there is no electricity or water for days together nobody sues the poilticians even when providing these services is their job. People sue Rahman fro giving excellent music. It happens only in INDIA

w-t-f.. wat did ARR do? whey heck they are suing music director for this??
Bollywood has no respect for talent and originality. It is only a copy cat industry. It could never make a movie like Slumdog millionaire. But, now that the movie has been made by a firangi it can just copy it. For example, Vikas Swarup whose novel Q&A has been converted into this movie is from UP (Allahabad), and of course, an IFS officer. This novel has been around for a while now. Why couldn't any bollywood guy think of making this movie? Why couldn't any Bollywood director recognize the potential of the novel by Vikas Swarup?

The reason is that Bollywood is controlled by ghaatii people like Raj Thackrey who have no brains.
