Rahmania grips Oscars
The cast and crew of Slumdog Millionaire celebrated their 10 Oscar nominations at the film’s India premiere in Mumbai on Thursday night. At a star-studded red carpet event, as congratulations poured in, they broke into an impromptu bhangra session to toast the achievement.
While most of the cast was in Mumbai, music director A.R. Rahman, who bagged three nominations, was away in Chennai working on the film Delhi 6.
When contacted, an excited Rahman shouted over the phone: “I am on top of the world. I don’t have words to describe how I feel. I am choking with joy. I believe the love and prayers of millions of Indians made it possible. It’s a dream come true.”
“It is unbelievable! I think our chances are very bright, I feel the world is going to change for good.” Director Danny Boyle said he was “proud” of the film and saluted the city it is based in.
