People like Resul, Tharoor and others achieve success & fame only after they leave lunatic Kerala. Kerala is a big lunatic asylum as declared by Vivekananda, with barefooted mallus walking half naked in lungis, spitting in public, peeing on walls & honking proudly in their small match box cars. Stone age tribals still living in coconut jungles & die falling into pot holes. By just reading some alphabets does not make one civilized or literate. Their king Mahabali was a demon.

this is the very first and maybe the last reality side of Indian film would ever been exposed again.But thats the the real truth that we all wanna know.We r not asking for some good looking actors talking about love between the poor n the rich or living in the castle or dancing in the luxury party with such a trendy branded clothes.Look at hrittik roshan,he speaks in english with indian dialect which is nonsense n clueless.What he thinks he could hide the hidden truth that right now we all can c

The OSCAR have completely succeeded in this award by showing only slums, people stealing shoes from the Great Tajmahal(One of the primary tourist spot), resealing mineral water bottles, Begger Mafia putting oils into kids eyes, Kids jumping into human shit(Even though we are Indian's we will think multiple times before we visit Mumbai again, So Forget about Foreigners),. These guys didn't even show a single minute movie which reflects good thing about India which is a shame.
