Shot a late night in Ahmedabad but still woke up at 9-30 am to catch the last bit of the Oscars. I jumped with joy when Resul Pookutty and A R Rahman’s name was announced and had a lump in my throat when I heard them render their speeches. They deserved it, India Deserved It. I felt finally our talented Indian technicians got their due. I loved the Film as an audience and felt it was great cinema, But as a Patriotic Indian maybe I always felt overprotective about how India was being perceived by the world. NO I am not in denial that the Slums do exist but there is so much more to India than just that. But even as I say all this, kudos to the director ‘Danny Boyle’ and co-director (Loveleen Tandan) who’s grasp on the medium made the film so entertaining and that needs to be applauded. I feel very proud of the fact that a film like this was churned out in India and has put us on the global map making it a golden letter day for Indian Cinema. Way to go.

Well back to shooting at the airport before I rush to catch a flight To Kuala Lumpur tomorrow. Its gonna be a manic schedule but what’s work without a bit of madness.

Signing out, lots of love and keep writing in.
