Ratings and reviews

WORST WORST. 0/5 is what I wanted to give. fellow Indians, please do not pay a single penny. because making fun of India's poverty and earning millions in dollars is no fun. worst picture alongwith Slumdog millionaire. shame on you dev Patel, you don't act good. his character doesnt create emotional connect whatsoever. nicole kidman is great and sparks up each frame she is in. story is good but everything looks fake. no emotions created for such moving story. worst movie for oscar nominations.

Based on Real life story of a child of India, who was locked unfortunately in a train and lost his family his friendly like brother. But, fortunately he grown up, studied and became a good person after adopted by a foreigner couple. They took care of him very well like his own parents. After he grown up, someday he remembered about his lost childhood and his lost family. Then he started finding them back by the help of the modern technologies and internet. This is the THEME of this movie.

True stories are always best. Everything about this movie is great, but some parts just doesn't adds up. This is a must watch shouldn't dissapoint anyone.
