IN BAD LIGHT: A still from Slumdog Millionaire

I watched
Slumdog Millionaire
and also read rave reviews about the film
. The movie only focuses on the miseries of those living in Mumbai slums. It completely overlooks the brighter side of our city.

Mumbai is not synonymous to slums, but American director Danny Boyle seems to have forgotten that about India's financial capital.

As a Mumbaikar, I feel such movies should be banned. I feel that films that tarnish the city's imageu00a0 should not be allowed to shoot here. Bollywoodu00a0 should not associate itself with such movies.u00a0
