wanted to watch this one... interesting premise. how was it?

I think its a very good movie.
The storyline covers the life of two brothers growing up in the slums of India and they flee as there village is being attacked for reasons of religion...

The boys flee the city because they will be made blind with chemicals to earn double the wage of normal streetsingers (or beggers). So they come across all walks of life and he (the youngest) learns things about the world that come in handy later on during a televised game show; Who wants to be a millionair.

The youngest of the two brothers keeps looking for his girlfriend from the past, and she ends up with some rich criminal with 10 other young girls for his company. Well, she doesn't think she gets a better life on the streets, so he joins the tv quiz to try and get rich. His older brother is part of the criminal group and helps the girlfriend escape by sacrificing his own life.

Eventually he wins 20 million rupees but not without hardship. After winning 10 million rupees he has the explain the police how he knew every question. And basically his story makes the storyline of the movie.

I would say; Enjoy this great movie.

I will definitely watch it to see if it deserves the golden globes. though i have to wait next week end cos its showing in the cinema on jan 22

will try to watch "changeling" tomorrow...

You might want to consider, joining a torrent site?
www.thc-torrents.org

Comes in very handy sometimes, even before the movies are being premiered in cinema's across the globe.

Take Utorrent 1.6 or 1.8 as downloadmanager.
