Danny Boyle, the Oscar winning director of Slumdog Millionaire, was in India recently to discuss his future venture and settle issues pertaining to the child artistes in SM – Azharuddin and Rubina.

The director, it may be recalled, had created the Jai Ho Trust to take care of these two child artistes, who are from the Mumbai slums. However, the demands from the relatives of these two children has made Danny flee the country, we hear.

While Azharuddin’s relatives wanted a car, Rubina’s family had demanded an additional USD 48,000 to fund their flat. With the demands going up everyday, Danny had left for UK, sources say.
