For weeks, I've thrown up posts off and on about how the stars of Slumdog Millionaire, mainly the youngsters Rubina Ali and Azhar Ismail, haven't been getting the support that producers of the movie promised to give them. Finally, after rumors of Rubina's father possibly selling her so that he could support his family and after hearing that both her and Azhar's house had been destroyed, director Danny Boyle flew to India to try and straighten everything out. Danny set up a trust fund last year to award money to both Rubina and Azhar, but for some reason they haven't been receiving any.
It's about time someone heads over there to figure all of this stuff out. We've heard all about how the stars were supposed to have a better life, meanwhile they were seeming to get worse with no one doing anything about it. Props to Danny for putting his foot down and trying to figure all this shizz out.
