Slumdog Millionaire

I went to see the movie the other week..
Fantastic!
I'd read the book a few years ago(based on book called Q&A) and
was very pleased by the adaptation.
Just a great movie, so go out and see it now at select theaters now.

here is a quick synopsis.

The story of Jamal Malik, an 18 year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai, who is about to experience the biggest day of his life. With the whole nation watching, he is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees on India's "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" But when the show breaks for the night, police arrest him on suspicion of cheating; how could a street kid know so much? Desperate to prove his innocence, Jamal tells the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up, of their adventures together on the road, of vicious encounters with local gangs, and of Latika, the girl he loved and lost. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show's questions. Each chapter of Jamal's increasingly layered story reveals where he learned the answers to the show's seemingly impossible quizzes. But one question remains a mystery: what is this young man with no apparent desire for riches really doing on the game show? When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out. At the heart of its storytelling lies the question of how anyone comes to know the things they know about life and love.

So my parents bought the soundtrack and I thought I'd post it here for you

Hey, i'm a fan of the blog, and an upcoming hip-hop producer. I currently completed a CD consisting of remixes and blends, and was wondering if you could assist me with some promoting. Possibly by posting it up on the blog, possibly. You can listen to some of the tracks at http://www.last.fm/music/Emay/A.D.D.+(Altered+Dynamic+Dimensions)

You can e-mail me at mubbi_3@hotmail.com.

I'd highly appreciate some feedback.
