Jai Ho...
The heated TV debates on Slumdog Millionaire don't just seem to stop. But you don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that:
1. Indian poverty does indeed sell in the west.
2. Indians are very touchy when it comes to poverty. As one participant on a TV debate pointed out, what Danny Boyle should do is to sell this movie to the Indians, because as far they go, poverty simply doesn't exist.
3. A R Rahman is a genius with or without an oscar.

The book is good if one is able to filter few strings from it. For example, references to tea, cigarettes
Real good book ..the author who choose to live a beggers life in persuit of God...ultimately his material wife too joined in the persuit after 60 yrs of age or so ...became an icon of the bhills in the MP ..transformed a village to self sufficiency without damaging environment.Her work is recognised by the westerned world .GOI who does not recognise RAM ..cannot expect from them..Narmeda Har !
