Slumdog Millionaire is the story of a slum dweller Jamal who wins 20 million rupees in Kaun Banega Crorepathi.Jamal participates in KBC and wins 10 million.The KBC host grows suspicious that he is cheating and hands him over to police.The question is how could a slum dweller know the answers to the questions asked in KBC.Police arrest Jamal and torture him and ask him how he knew the answers to the questions.He then tells them how he knows each and every answer through the events occurred in his life.The police find his reasons correct and they release him.Jamal then goes back to KBC and answers the last question and wins 20 million rupees.There is also love story of Jamal in this movie.Jamal loves Latika and is separated from her by his brother Salim.He unites with her at last.

Slumdog Millionaire is a good movie.It tells us the life of slum dwellers in Mumbai and how small children are made blind to make them beg on streets and earn money through them.There is also some focus on red light area in Mumbai.This movie won 8 academy awards and 4 golden globe awards. The song 'Jai Ho' by A R Rehman is excellent.In this movie India is shown as a poor country though India is not a poor country.The background music is good.The story is also interesting.Because of this movie Indian music got recognized worldwide.
