I was on hiatus from work to complete my business management program so didn’t blog for a while.
I guess you guys must have heard on the phenomenal success of “Slumdog Millionaire”. It was awesome to see our countrymen A.R.Rehaman and Resul Pookutty receive their Oscars at the 81st Annual Academy Awards.
Here’s why they deserve the Oscars :
A.R.Rahman‘s humbleness and determination is immense which has made him a household name in India. I was Exhilarated to hear “ELLA PUGAZHUM ERAIVANNUKE” ( All fame and glory to god) pronounced by ARR. He said “All my life , I’ve had a choice of hate and love. I chose love ,and I’m here” .
Resul Pookutty a man from a remote village from Kerala has not only brought laurels to Kerala but to the entire Nation. He dedicated the award to India saying “ I come from a country and civilization that gave the world the word that precedes silence and is followed by more silence. The word is “OM” .So I dedicate this ward to my country”. Fantabulous speech.
Danny Boyle – Director : I read an article on him where he said he became a clergyman to impress his mother but later chose to follow his heart to become a movie director and he’s done it now.
Jai Ho India !!!
