Slumdog Millionaire bagged 8 Oscars!

As much as I want to share my summer trip in Coron Palawan I don't want to miss writing an entry about the recent Oscars. It happened that the awards night was last 22nd and I was so far away from TV . I got the news when my sister texted me that Slumdog Millionaire won 8 Oscars! I am so very happy for the people who made the movie and so glad when I found out that the younger versions of Jamal, Latika and Salim made it to the red carpet! They're really adorable kids and made significant impact on the film. As I've mentioned on my previous post, Slumdog Millionaire is on my top list of favorite movies, it outranked Gladiator and Legends of the Fall.


Here are the list of the awards they received:

Best Original Score – A. R. Rahman
