About Film :-
Slumdog Millionaire is a 2008 British drama film that is a loose adaptation of the novel Q & A (2005) by Indian author Vikas Swarup, telling the story of Jamal Malik, age 18, from the Juhu slums of Mumbai. Starring Dev Patel as Jamal, and filmed in India, the film was directed by Danny Boyle, written by Simon Beaufoy, and produced by Christian Colson, with Loveleen Tandan credited as co-director.
As a contestant on the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Jamal Malik surprises everyone by being able to answer every question correctly. Accused of cheating, Jamal recounts his life story to the police, illustrating how he is able to answer each question correctly.
After its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival and later screenings at the Toronto International Film Festival and the London Film Festival,Slumdog Millionaire had a nationwide release in the United Kingdom on 9 January 2009, in India on 22 January 2009,[10] and in the United States on 23 January 2009.
Regarded as a sleeper hit, Slumdog Millionaire was widely acclaimed, being praised for its plot, soundtrack, direction, and performances, especially Patel's. It was nominated for ten Academy Awards in 2009 and won eight—the most for any 2008 film—including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay. It won seven BAFTA Awards including Best Film, five Critics' Choice Awards and four Golden Globes. However it was also the subject of controversy, especially in India, due to its portrayal of Indian society, the use of the word "slumdog" in the title and perceived exploitation of some of the younger actors.

And main centre of the film is one reality show where protagonist go and give correct answer and he achieve money but the host of the reality show didn't like that so call the police and the protagonist was integrated by police men.

2) caste and class conflict
3) richness and poor
4) corrupt police
5) The protagonist are uneducated
These are the differentiate which we find in film and novels

2) In film we can see that religion is in centre,
In the novell we see that caste and religion is important
3) In film there is nothing outsider but it's become a globe globalised,
But in novel protagonist was focus on those who are outsider and who is insider
4) In film we see that protagonist is get success by his observation skill, and also by knowledge just because he never get a chance to educate him.
But in the novel we see that protagonist want to educate but the circumstances and not in favour that's why he leave the school and started earning money and finally by killing someone get success.
5) in film maybe we can say that there is a some kind of poetic justice,
But in novel we cannot find any kind of poetic justice.

2) Munna Bhai MBBS
3) Vaastav
