Slumdog Millionaire - Is it really worth

Slumdog Millionaire. Nice movie to watch. A small movie with full Bollywood masala. It is like any other Bollywood masala flick. But why then it is making a lots of fuzz in the international arena. It has already got 4 Golden Globe awards and nominated for 10 categories in Oscars. I really do not see any reson.

The only reason I could think of is some white man Danny Boyle directed the movie. As far as acting is concern it is no where near to legend Bollywood actors. Even Anil Kapoor has acted better in his own other movies. But still the movie is widely acclaimed.

As far as A. R. Rahman is concern no doubt his music is always good. But he could have got that (Golden Globe) for other Bollywood movies also.

It is a good movie but is it really better than Wednesday, Swadesh, Taare zameen Par, Rang De Basanti so on an so forth? I don't think so.

As I already mentioned the only reason why this movie is making news is the involvement of some foreigners. This shows how the awards have been distributed there. They all have notions that we can not make the movies for Oscars but I believe and know that some of our movies are better than there awarded movies.
