The magnificent success of Slumdog Millionaire, both at the box office and at the Oscars last night, has cast a dark shadow over Bollywood.
What a humiliating insult to Bollywood, that an outsider like Danny Boyle comes to Mumbai, the movie capital of India, makes an amazingly entertaining movie like Slumdog Millionaire on a budget of just $15 million, with a cast of ‘slumdogs’ and walks away with all the glory.
Eight Oscars, no less.
Folks, with few exceptions Bollywood = Thieves+Mediocrity.
No question about it, dear reader.
Thieves – Yes, Yes, Yes
Look at the staggering number of movies these Bollywood swines have stolen over the years: Ghajini, Partner, Heyy Baby, God Tussi Great Ho, Kidnap, The Killer, U Me Aur Hum, Hum Kisise Kum Nahin, Ek Ajnabee, Saroja, Thenali,…the list is endless.
Yes, most of our cheapo Bollywood heroes, heroines, directors and producers are beneficiaries of theft.
Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgan, Salman Khan, Surya, Riteish Deshmukh, Murugadoss, Venkat Prabhu et al are all beneficiaries of theft.
And this wretched beneficiary of theft Amitabh ‘Big Mouth’ Bachchan whines about Slumdog Millionaire projecting India’s dirty side.
Truly sir, the Amitabh Bachchans, Akshay Kumars and Kamal Haasans have no shame. Absolutely no shame at all.
Mediocrity
If shameless stealing is one side of the Bollywood coin, the other side is mediocrity.
Most Bollywood stars and starlets – the Abhishek Bachchans, Ajiths, and Priyanka Chopras of the world – are no more than buffoons and wouldn’t recognize acting if it smacked them hard on the face.
Most Bollywood writers can’t write a screenplay or story. And cover it up with stupid dream-song sequences of skimpily clad starlets in Switzerland or Namibia.
And most Bollywood directors are so clueless that they can’t find the loo without direction.
Worse, these cocky little twits make little effort to acknowledge their shortcomings and improve.
No surprise then that beyond the borders of India, no one takes these jokers seriously.
Eat your hearts out today, Bollywood. For the stupendous success of Slumdog Millionaire has exposed you for what you really are – a bunch of thieving, mediocre shits.

Amitabh Bachchan is talking nonsense. He wouldn’t have cared but for the fact that Delhi 6 is his Bachcha’s movie.
Seriously that article was nonsense in the purest sense of the word. I read it twice and still can’t figure out what the hell he is saying. He could give Mike Tyson a run for his money. Maybe too many box office failures for his son has sent him to the edge of “bolivion.”

Though that article be madness, there’s method in it.
Amitabh Bachchan is just a sore-loser. His son’s Delhi 6 has not taken the world by storm (and rightly so) and the old gasbag is just expelling some gas and fouling up the atmosphere with his tirade.
You have a terrible sex life or what ? Is that the reason why you orgiastically grouse about anything related to India with all your logical fallacies ? I think you should be argumentative rather than putting your all frustrations in words , which obviously has tons of hate for India in them.
First of all please look at your website . This is one of the worst websites I have seen on the Internet. No aesthetics at all. One is welcomed to the first page with all the stupid links and dirty advertisements. Oh lo ! on top of that the one liner from the BBC world. wow..
Coming to the point ,’Slum dog millionaire’ is as Indian as the movie ‘Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom’ , may be a little more Indian than that.
Also I thought this year Oscar awards has resemblance to 1982 awards . That year the Best Picture went to ‘Gandhi’ , even though many considered E.T – The Extra Terrestrial to be a cinematic achievement .

Bend over, b*tch…You’ll have a hard-time walking straight for a few weeks. 😉

Schmuck, since when did a link to a travel agent or travel insurance or hospital become a dirty advertisement. Perhaps, you were wanking your meat while looking at them and your addled brain couldn’t figure out what was happening in the rush.
Ads pay the bills, dummkopf.
Your hatred of us makes you write the stupidest of comments.
3. You write: First of all please look at your website . This is one of the worst websites I have seen on the Internet.
Really. Just in the last few weeks, you’ve posted multiple comments on this site. And God knows, how many dozen times you’ve logged on.
When we dislike something, we let go not hang on like a leech like you do.
So, stop the logorrheic drivel. Pronto.
4. You write: Coming to the point ,’Slum dog millionaire’ is as Indian as the movie ‘Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom’ , may be a little more Indian than that.
Coming to the point, all your comments prove that you are as human as our neighbor’s guinea pig. Maybe, a little less so.
Slumdog Millionaire was a lovely movie and richly deserved all the honors including the Oscars, Golden Globes et al.
Slumdog Success Casts Dark Shadow Over Bollywood
Hollywood has always made better movies compared to Indian and many other countries in the world …. Slumdog is good ….but there are better movies than slumdog …..so i guess dark shadow always existed
….its also to do with hype ….Bollywood will not wake up because of Slumdog or any other good movie ….it will continue to cater to its core audience ….only a change in audience’s tastes will result in better movies being made.

True, for the most part.
But we think the core audience taste is changing, albeit slowly.
people who are abusing SI dont realise that ….it makes no difference …..maybe you should show them some of my old posts …..they may then cool down …
SI et al,
The BOBs (Brutes of Bollywood) are so pissed because this movie is showing how to make a movie diligently and proved that these guys are just nothing but copy-cats.
Amitabh would not like the movie because his role was done by Anil Kapoor and he did not get to go to Oscars. Even if we have dhoom-10 in the near future, it might not help Abhishek. Aamir said it did not work for him as TZP failed to get a nomination last year.
These guys have to think for once. Ok, if you are so pissed about “Slumdog”, even “smile pinky” won an oscar for best documentary. Again it was about an indian girl, indian doctors, her treatment etc. What slumdog did is, rake in moolah and at the same time woke the audience up. Thats why these guys are pissed.

1. You write above: Aamir said it did not work for him
Only stolen shit like Ghajini works for Aamir Khan.
2. Bottomline, Bollywood must be seething with jealousy because they stand exposed for the schmucks and thieves many of them are.
by the way, i loved Resul’s speech when he won the award.
