If you are an Indian and you watched the Oscars then
definitely you are feeling like a millionaire. Slumdog has gone where
no Indian has ever been before! Yes, it has swept the most prestigious
award in the world as the best film of the 81st Academy Awards. A. R.
Rahman besides having his mother in the auditorium also has two Oscars
in his kitty now, one for the best original score and the other for Jai
Ho.
India has finally arrived on the international platform for excellence
in cinema, though at the moment we have ridden the able shoulders of
Brit director Danny Boyle. He deservedly did pick the award for best
director. And this achievement has undoubtedly raised our confidence
sky high. It’s a happy thought that sooner than later we will be
bringing many more Oscars to our shores and the next time to do so
shall be the Bollywood craftsmen. Once again Jai Ho.
