 This is first time in the history of India and Indian cinema its "Jai Ho" time. The western people and
society started recognizing the power of Indian cinema and powerful Indian nation driven by the people of this country along with all other Indians spread
around the globe. The never die spirit and the never ending hope of Mumbai, India has got reflected in this movie.
Altough having so much poverty and diffiulties in daily life, people just live with the hope
they see through this typical trendy hindi bollywoody movies. The west
started to realise that the people of this country has never gave hope
of fighting from all the odds to dream big and hope to live the life
like millionaire. This shear energy has been depicted by the story
teller in this movie. Though he is not an Indian, but most of the
members of this film and the story itself Mumbai(India) based. Though one can argue about the excitement people showing as the citizen
of the country where the movie is directed by a British director which
might have influenced the academy jury members a lot to vote for this
movie, it is very much Indian and it will open doors of hope in the
mind of lot many Indian directors and producers.
The western society might have also got influenced by the recent
"Mumbai Attack" which has helped gaining milleage for this movie. Side
by side, India is also getting more powerful in world politics and economy. So all
these might have added to the reason of "Slumdog Millionaire's"
success.
Beside all these, A. R. Rahman should have got Oscar lot before for
his one after another brilliant composison for different Indian movies in past.
But as I said that the current world ecenomy and the political
picture might have turned the focus towards India and its very unique
powerful singnature, "Bollywoody Movies".
I can also find similarity with one after another winning of beauty
contest by indian beauties few years back. That trend may now start to get visible
for indian cinema as well for several years. The fact is "matter of influence", which can play a major role
on the mind of the judges and jury irrespective of the field and region
of the globe they are from. We can only hope that, this clean sweap of 8 Oscar awards winning can do good for the country India and Indians across the globe.
