All Indians are feeling happy and proud on Danny Boyle’s ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ sweeping the 81st Academy Awards by winning eight Oscars. Out of the eight awards, three were won by Indian artistes, Mr. Resul Pookutty, Mr.A.R. Rehman and Mr. Gulzar.Surprisingly and shockingly, the popular Indian Mr. Girish Karnad, who is a multi-faceted creative personality in the fields of:-• Theatre,
• Literature,
• Acting and
• Academics.
has expressed a different view on the film ‘Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire’.
“Padmabhusan” & “Jnanpith” – Mr.Girish Karnad has told that he had never seen anything worse than ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ which had completely failed in India.
Also he is surprised why we are obsessed with the ‘Oscars’ or the ‘Grammys’ while the Indian film industry is perfectly healthy in every sense of the word.
