As soon as Shakru returned to New Delhi, Daward ran to him and complained: "Little Shakru, what kind of broken film did you shoot last time with someone in Dahavi in Mumbai, do you know how much trouble you caused my friend?" ”

Because he has been traveling abroad recently, so Shakru has forgotten about it a little, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered that Daward said that it was the movie "Slumdog Millionaire", but in his impression that this movie was very successful, whether it was in the United States or in India, the box office was a big hit, and it is said that getting involved in the Oscars is just around the corner, and even his small shareholder, who only accounts for five percent of the shares, has made a lot of money, how can he get into trouble? So he asked curiously, "What's wrong with this movie?" What's wrong? ”

"You've been in India lately, you're not in Mumbai, so you don't know what's going on, and now there have been several huge demonstrations in Dahavi, demanding that the government not allow Slumdog Millionaire to go ahead, and even slapping and spitting on the portraits of the director and screenwriter with slippers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoMy friend Dahavi, who helped you with the film, and you, the partner of the film, are now called traitors to the Indians, do you think it's a big problem? Dawode said angrily.

Still confused, Shakru continued to ask, "Why are they resisting so much?" ”

"Because they feel that this movie hurts their feelings, they feel that this is using India's backwardness and ignorance to amuse Westerners, so that Westerners wantonly laugh at India, and they are exposing their own shortcomings, India's films exported abroad should focus on India's beautiful and long-standing culture, and should not only expose their own shortcomings and dark sides, they are not without poverty and violence in the United States, but why is it that American Superman is saving the world every time in their movies?" Davoud said slowly.

"That's it?" Shakru asked incredulously.

"What's the matter, isn't that a good reason?"

Shakru calmed his anger for a while, and then said: "I admit that this movie reflects the backward and dark side of India now, and does not mention the beautiful and long history and culture of India, but this is all true, these situations are real, it can be said that in Dahawi, in Mumbai and even in every city in India, such things happen every day." If it's real, why can't it be filmed? Why can't you show it to others? And it's not just us India who shoot movies like this, Chinese are also making movies like this, and the movies shot by the Chinese director Lao Mouzi, who I am very familiar with, are also of this type, why haven't they been resisted by the Chinese? ”

In fact, Shakru complained in his heart, compared to Lao Mouzi's grandparents who relied on the grandparents of the black 80s to please the American judges, "Slumdog Millionaire" is filmed even if it is about conscience, after all, it is filmed in the real situation that happened in reality, and Lao Mouzi's "Red Lantern Hangs High" and "Red Sorghum" reflect which life's affairs, and as a result, Americans who have never been to China think that Chinese are still living in that situation.

In the end, Shakru simply waved his hand and said: "Brother Daward, don't worry, since I provoked this matter, then I will solve it, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, I will go to Zee TV to do an exclusive interview or hold a press conference, I don't believe this matter is not clear." ”

As soon as I heard what Sha Kelu meant, the director of the production department agreed with excitement on his face, and said that he would prepare overnight, and he could be formally interviewed the next day, and asked if Sha Kelu could broadcast live, because live broadcast is not like recording, and the dissatisfied parts can be modified at will, so the consent of the interviewee must be obtained before the live broadcast, and Sha Kelu doesn't care much about this, So he casually agreed.

The next day, in the most popular interview program on Zee TV, the host conducted an exclusive interview with Shaklu, and as usual, he first chatted a few words about irrelevant topics, so as to let the interviewee relax, and secondly, to give the audience a time to react and prepare.

After a short while, the host entered the topic and asked, "Mr. Pandit, it is said that you had a cooperation with the British EMI International Film Company in the previous paragraph?" ”

"It can't be said to be a cooperation, because I didn't provide much help, but I was more optimistic about this movie, so I took a stake." Shakru corrected.

"As it turns out, Mr. Pandit, you have a very unique vision, and the film has been doing quite well at the box office in both the United States and India lately, and you must have gained a lot." The host first smiled and complimented, and then changed the conversation and asked: "But recently, there have been several huge demonstrations against this film in Mumbai's Dahawi, which is the filming location of "Slumdog Millionaire", they think that this film is to please Westerners by using India's poverty and backwardness, which is a hurt to their feelings, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Shakru pondered for a moment, and then replied: "Because I have been on vacation abroad recently, I just came back the day before yesterday, so I have just learned about this matter, although the specific situation is not very clear, but the general reason I think I have understood, so I want to use your show to say my opinion."

First of all, I admit that this film does shoot some of the dark sides of India at the moment, but these are objective facts, so I don't think there is any need to hide from medical treatment, since they are all real, then why don't you dare to let people watch them? This is not a deliberate distortion or fabrication of facts. To be honest, I didn't buy the copyright to this movie, otherwise I would have made it like this, I think when I first established Polaris, I even dared to shoot "The Bandit Queen", that scale is not much better than this. ”

"Another problem is that people are not happy with the title, the word slumdog is an insult to the slum dwellers, and there is a placard that reads: "We are people, not dogs" (note: slumdog is a combination of the words "slum" and "dog", the former means slum and the latter means dog), what do you think about this issue? The moderator went on to ask one more question. (To be continued.) )
