Flat Out Wrong


I'm really upset at the filmmakers of "Slumdog Millionaire" for not stepping up and helping the 2 children who were in the film, Rubina Ali and Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail (pictured above). Rubina & Azharuddin's homes, if you can even call them that, were demolished a few weeks ago. Attached is an article I read about what the filmmakers are doing to help. In my opinion, they're not doing enough! I know that any help should be thought of as gracious, but when a film makes $326 million and you give the families of the children a mere $100 thousand, something is flat out wrong with that.
