This book by Rohinton Mistry may be more realistic depiction of Indian poverty and slum life. The book is far better compared to movie "Slumdong Millionaire". But what prompted me to this is fame and undue media attention given to Slumdog Millionaire movie which may be good in they eye of west but certainly not true and realistic portrayal of Life in Indian Slums.
Hype made by discussions and illusions by mainstream media always concerns me more because it never gives due credits to true gems. For example, i really wonder how hype created by media and Swiss supporters around Tennis star Federer disguised his more losses against Spanish champion Rafael Nadal in their bouts till date. After Expressing my opinion I feel that one should not get swayed by highlights and opinions shown by mainstream media and not think that what media shows is best in the world.
