A Mumbai teen, Jamal Malik who grew up in the slums, becomes a contestant on the Indian version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?". On suspicion of how could a street boy got this far in the game, he was arrested for cheating when the game breaks for the night.
While being interrogated, events from his life eg. his childhood in the slum with his brother, vicious encounters with the local gangs and his loved one, Latika, etc. are revealed. Each chapter of his story becomes the key to the answer for the game show's questions.
Just what this young man with no apparent desire for riches really doing on the game show? I leave it to you to find out the answer.
Story that leaves you breathless. A film so upbeat that, by the time you’re relaying its infectious air of optimism to friends, you almost forget that it features poverty, orphans, organised crime, enslavement and police brutality. A f#cking good film I tellya!
