Slumdog
Millionaire has already won several
prestigious awards and now expectations
are soaring high on how it would
fare in the Oscars. This million
dollar question has brought in a
new trend in Bollywood. Yes, reports
flow in that there is a $41 million
bet on Slumdog Millionaire, especially
on A.R. Rahman. With the Oscar nearing
(February 22nd, 2009), the stakes
are just getting higher. Sources
say that this is perhaps the first
time that the bookies are placing
a bet on a film and Oscars. |
