Rahman's Success at the Oscars: 'Jai Ho' for the Indian Entertainment World


It was indeed a special day for all of us seeing the whole world dancing on the tunes of 'Jai Ho,' from the biggest blockbuster hit ' Slumdog Millionaire.' With the success of his powerful musical composition, Rehman has created history by becoming the first Indian musician to get such an honor. This versatile musicians has earlier proved his talent by giving some of the evergreen tracks such as 'Chhoti is Asha (Roja), 'Chaiyya Chaiyya (Bombay)' and others. His recent music in Aamir Kham starrer Gajhni has done very well.

I congratulate Rehman on his victory and wish him all the best for creating wonderful music that reflects the sound of truth and happiness. This is a humble beginning for a person like Rehman, there is a lot more in store...we will be waiting for such lovely music...

Slumdog Millionaire: worthy to get international acclaims


An original concept written straight away from heart with a touch of reality always clicks. It reaches to hearts easily and gives the message. Slumdog Millionaire is the latest message that has become the hottest talk-of-the-town. It has a simple concept of a slum boy Jamal (Dev doesn't look like a slum boy) entering into a quiz show and ends up winning 2 crores, mind it he is uneducated and can't recognize Mahatma Gandhi's picture, strange..its a film after all. The story is not extraordinary however, the presentation is indeed captivating.

What I like about the movie is how each answer of the quiz relates to the life of Jamal. Also, the film puts a limelight on the lives of slum people especially children who lost their parents. It is a serious issue such children are deprived of proper education, normal childhood and a chance to make their life. What wrong if such children went on choosing wrong activities to fulfill their basic needs? The need is to pay attention towards children to make a better tomorrow.
