Allahabad: The superhit song 'Jai Ho' composed by music director and Academy
Award winner AR Rahman not only captivates music lovers in India, but across
the globe and in US one can hear the popular number being played in shopping
malls and not to mention at the John F Kennedy International Airport also,
said a delighted Vikas Swaroop, author of the book 'Q and A' which inspired
the making of Oscar winning movie Slumdog Millionaire' in an exclusive
interview with TOI after his arrival in the city here on Wednesday.
Holding high praise for the Hollywood film industry for its democratic
character, Swaroop said the scene at Academy Awards Ceremony was entirely
different from Indian Awards Function on account of the fact that once
ushered inside the venue one could freely interact with the likes of Brad
Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston. However, in Bollywood the security
paraphanelia around the stars keep the fans and common man at bay from their
favourite stars.
As regards 'Slumdog Millionaire' the diplomat turned writer felt that after
Gandhi it is the first film based on an Indian theme which has earned the
accolades of movie lovers in western countries and won Oscars in virtually
all major categories. This is despite the fact that themes of both films were
altogether different. But this cannot deny the credit to Slumdog.. which was
a work of total fiction and its list of high profile admirers include present
US secretary of state, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Attributing the success of the film to its ability to touch the hearts of
people from top to bottom, Swaroop said that work on another film based on
his second book 'The Six Suspects' would commence shortly with British
Broadcasting Corporation( BBC) hiring the services of legendary screenplay
writer John Hodge to write the screenplay of the film. Interestingly, Hodge
is the person who is credited with writing the screenplay of Slumdog's..
director, Danny Boyle's other three films and is a gifted screenplay writer.
