No I am serious… At times when India is struggling with so many big issues…. education, poverty, female infanticide, terrorism, castism… I mean u name and we have it…
and there are a set of people who decide that only that is not enough we need to have some issues and now with the name of movies…
A case has been filled against Rahman and Anil, check out the news here… it fails me… office bearer of a slum dwellers’ body who has filled the case… doesnt he have anything good to do? I am sure there will 1000 problems he can try and solve if he looks inside and yet all he chooses to is file a case against Slumdog Millionare… because the movie calls the DOGS….
I have no words…. U know this is exactly why India is not progressing the way it can, when will we understand the real issues we need to stand up to???
haha.. same story here as well…
we create issues for the sake of fighting
Monika these are the guys who make successful politicians, maybe he is planning to fight elections.
I thought the dogs should be filing a defamation suite that humans are being given their name !!!
its the dogs who should feel insulted that the worst spieces on the earth we given their name !!!!
pathetic to say the least !!
Duh! yeah, people like these – they should be stripped off all their powers and should be sent back to school for mentally challenged…
How do people have the time for all this.
Disgusting!
Even more pathetic will be the 24X7 NEWS CHANNELS that will take this up and actually spend airtime calling "experts" to discuss the sociological, anthropological and colonial ramifications of these polarized perspectives. Yep, like this last sentence, they will use big words that mean little. Hehehe!!
On the other hand, I'd like those news channels to spend time asking WHY THE F*%*& THERE IS NO PROGRESS ON THE PUTTENHALLI UNDERPASS???!!!! But that's too "local" to make sense even on this blog. Sigh
He wants cheap publicity and a chance to share space with Anil and Rehman
Most of the time, people fight about what to name a street or why some foreigner hugged a Bharatiya actress, which is against Indian rules (where, when??) when the real issues remain well issues..
BTW, you are tagged.
@Afaque,
its sad isnt it… we are nations who need the development and hardwork and we are the ones who get stuck
@–xh–,
mentally challenged are better than this and i certainly wont like to break their peace 🙂
@ihm,
lol!!! all the more reason to stop him… we dont want to be dealing with another crooked dutt
@hitch writer…
lol!!! loved ur comment… me and N both had a good laugh on it
i havent seen the movie.. so its hard to say if the content and the title are in sync… or if they really do mean to call indians dogs…but i really think its unlikely…waise,purely out of curiosity, why is it called slumdog millionaire?
oh even if it made good reasoning, why anil kapoor and rahman? simple, because none of th others wud create a publicity flutter! best ignored, like th hoax bomb tip off’s
Well, there is something about the ’15 minutes syndrome’. Everyone has caught on to it. You see, bashing up something that is the flaor or stink of the season can help you get the 15 seconds on YouTube. Or Aaj Tak. Or India TV.
I think Mr. Boyle would have factored in these cases and protests. I remember a while back there were protests over the word ‘Gandhigiri’. And there is more to come…
Now the latest is the slum kids’ parents are planning to sue the producer for not paying them enough.
