We've heard many negative remarks on book of the same. The majority of people's opinion was that it showed India in bad light. Though we've not read Adiga's book so far, read many articles by him regarding various subjects. We're prepared for something like Slumdog Millionaire. It is better than that.

The film starts with entrepreneur Balram Halwai (Adarsh) writing an Email to Chinese premier Wen Jiabao seeking an appointment and simultaneously narrating his story.

Having been unable to utilize the scholarship and study further due to his father's untimely death, Balram starts working in a tea shop.
