Mumbai : After Amitabh Bachchan’s alleged criticism against the Oscar-nominated Danny Boyle flick ‘Slumdog Millionaire’, actress Shilpa Shetty is the latest to slam the movie.
According to the actress, ‘Slumdog’ is basically a grim portrayal of India and Mumbai in particular.
Shilpa says, "Obviously it's about the slums. I just feel that internationally recognised films focus more on our slums and poverty. So I just wrote on my blog two days ago that for a change, I'm doing a film that focuses on the beauty of India and its culture. That'll be interesting to watch as well."
Other than Big B and Shilpa Shetty, filmmaker Priyadarshan and actress Preity Zinta have already expressed their disappointment over the film's content and depiction.
