Babels of slum and Rahman

Babels of slum and Rahman

Today, my morning started with Oscar awards show in TV. It was the triumph moments for Indian movie fraternity. Slumdog Millionaire won many awards . I am sure that's what the pinnacle minute for director and everyone. Awards came to most of movie departments except except for acting department, I am sure acting part was not nominated ! 

Personally I liked the movie for its technical enrichment. Story & acting wise it's just another ordinary weaving. I was sure editing would win the award as movie's asli strength is in its tight editing.

Though Rahman won award for background score, he was 'the best' in Lagaan and I'm sure he missed academy award for it, though he was nominated for it or not. Certainly music in Slumdog Millionaire was not top notch v/s his other compositions. May be sound engineering has given a special attraction for the background score. You should listen to his Azaadi song in netaji subhash chandra bose -movie, that's the best rendering than jai ho.

But again it's proved. you do gods-own-quality movie, unless it's marketed well to International audience with much fan fare, no movie is going to win academy awards. I was quite curious about what Indian netizens think about it. I am sure there's a better place to record their voices and chaos in rediff discussion
