"I never forgot. Not for one day. I knew I’d find you in the end. It’s our destiny." - Jamal

So starts the story of Jamal Malik, a poor slumdog in Mumbai. Jamal becomes a contestant on the Indian version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Jamal does so well that the host becomes suspicious, and tortures him to tell how he knows all the answers. Jamal tells them about his life.

They befriend a girl named Latika, who becomes a sex slave. Jamal and Salim rescue her and Salim kills a man. After Salim and Jamal split and Jamal gets a job at a call centre. Jamal finds Salim and they meet and Jamal hates Salim for what he did. Salim tells Jamal where to find Latika. He goes, only for her to tell him to forget about her and to run. Jamal leaves and trys to find her after by going on the TV show. Jamal does so well that he gets to the final question. He doesn't know it and trys calling Salim, but Latika answers the phone, but she doesn't know the answer either. Jamal randomly picks one and ends up winning the million dollars. Latika and Jamal meet at the train station. THE END!!!!


I give this film a 4 1/2*/ 5*. I really liked the story of this poor boy and his horrible live finally winning the money and the girl. I liked how the flashbacks went with the questions on the show. I think this is a wonderful movie!!!
