Simon Beaufoy

Slumdog Millionaire’ is a fairy tale, but it starts in a place you really believe, and that came from spending two months wandering around the slums picking up stories and talking to people.

The question is – did Richard Attenborough have a right to make ‘Gandhi?’ And did Danny Boyle have a right to make ‘Slumdog Millionaire?’ Quite honestly, if they didn’t have the right to make these films, I had no right to make ‘Elizabeth.’

Shashi Tharoor

Above all, Danny Boyle’s ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ is the work of an artist at the peak of his powers. India is his palette, and Mumbai – that teeming ‘maximum city’, with 19 million strivers on the make, jostling, scheming, struggling and killing for success – is his brush.

The casting of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ is a dream. Anil Kapoor, as the sleazy TV host, diamonds winking in his earlobes, has never been better; the quietly understated Irrfan Khan turns in another bravura performance as the police inspector whose questioning brings out Jamal’s story.

Mahesh Manjrekar

Slumdog Millionaire’ was as good or as bad any Bollywood film. If I had to rate it, I would give it just 5.5 points out of 10. Unlike others, I am not gung-ho about the film winning so many Oscars. Yes, I am happy that I was a part of the project, but I am yet to figure out why it got so many Oscars.

The film ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ portrays the spirit you feel in India. For those who haven’t been there, the film says it all.

One of the best things about the award season is that when a British film succeeds at the Oscars and BAFTAs, such as ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ in 2009 and ‘The King’s Speech’ this year, the British public get right behind it with an immense sense of national pride.

Gulzar

I had written the song ‘aaza aaza Shamiyane ke tale… ‘ for Ghai’s film ‘Yuvvraj’ but he felt the song did not suit his film and Rahman suggested that the track should be used in ‘Slumdog’ and it fitted well with the movie.

– Gulzar

Gulzar

I am very happy with ‘Jai Ho’ from ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ getting the Golden Globe. It means a lot for Indians and the music here.

– Gulzar

Everything big-budget or stereotypical I was offered after ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ was a huge no-no.
