"Few Indians are Slumdogs or Millionaires"
This article is a critics point of view on the film "Slumdog Millionaire" film. He doesn't mind "rags to riches" story lines and doesn't have anything against them, but he basically states and argues that there are two extreme representations of India, either showing the "display of new wealth" or "voyeuristic dire poverty".

"Slumdog Millionaire is Bafta's best movie"
This article clearly talks about the success of the British made film, "Slumdog Millionaire". It clearly shows how even with serious issues, the film still grabs the attention of the audience and is a winner with them, and also it sheers them up, allowing them to "escape". It also shows the success of Asians.
