Its worth the praise, and both of them deserved it.
But as of the Movie winning this prize and the movie becoming so famous is not something which I am too happy about. This movie is about India, no doubts. But it mainly highlights the extremes of India. Why is this movie , which is show casing , the slum areas in India, the negatives around it etc making such waves.
Another thought that came in my mind is the Booker Prize winning book The White Tiger , Again, this book also talks about India and mostly the negatives about India. Again, I dont deny that this are false stories. They are all but truth. But my simple question is that, In two different leagues, each Independent of each other, both have reached the top level, and both are showcasing the same stuff about India as a whole.
Is this what the world loves to see and read ????
Am not too happy about this fact ..

I totally agree with you.WHY??are we celebrating and worshipping with Oscars for a negative potrait of India.
It makes a lot of difference when you sit and watch the movie in a different country.I won't be surprised if every Indian will be termed as "SLUMDOG" henceforth,in foreign countries specially UK and USA.
My dil wishes…ki tum sada raho khush. Tumhari Holi ho rangeen aur har ek din ho sada haseen.
Ab ke baar phir wohi mausam hai, wohi
maheena hai, wohi din hai.. aur bohat saari yaadein hain.
To kya? Ek aur baras beet gaya. Saal ke
teen-so-painsath (365) din zindagi ke
chaaron mausam ban kar guzar gaye ..
3.10 ho ya 10.3 ...din tho wahi......10th.March..
MANY HAPPY RETURNS OF THE DAY.
Happy Birthday, Prasad-have a great one!
Thanks a lot for the Birthday wishes.. May I know who is this anonymous:)

I watched this movie over the weekend and I just hated the movie. they have shown extreme, no idea why Indians are so happy about it. Are we so deprived of recognition?
