Its absolutely appalling that being an Indian myself I find it strange that the people who are giving the movie negative ratings here and as well as in IMDB are mostly Indians.
For once, let prejudice and nationalism (not patriotism) take a backseat and let people enjoy the movie for what it is.
I always chuckle at my fellowmen cringing over the slums shown in a foreign film as if the directors intention was to portray the whole country as one which is in fact not the case. reflect any negative aspect of the country and we have our nationalists screaming foul and ruining ratings on a forum.
Its amusing how at one end they would refuse to acknowledge the slum life as being an integral part of the dynamic country while at the same time would spend money watching pure B grade bollywood flicks running and singing around trees.
Ignore them and watch this movie.
