Journey of a Slumdog

Rating: 10/10 (23 January 2009)

This movie is one of the best movies I have seen. It's a story about the slumlife in Mumbai. The important thing is that Jamal (Dev Patel) dint loose hope in spite that his mother died and he was deceived by his own brother. I felt Salim had a good nature when he was small.
Jamal earned a living as a 'chai wala' where as Salim got money doing bad things. Latika was a descent and noble girl, but because of Salim she got into the wrong company. This story is an eye-opener. All the actors acted very well especially Dev Patel (Jamal Mullik) and Frieda Pinto (Latika) Dev Patel should get the award for the best actor.
I was really shocked at the treatment meted to the slums. Jamal used his own mind instead of following the answer which Anil Kapoor gave him. Even though Anil Kapoor kept teasing him he dint mind.Even when he phoned Latika, he was more bothered about her than the money.
This story tells us that if one is focused in life one can achieve one's goal no matter how many obstacales one faces.
It's a beautiful movie
