It follows the tale of former slum dweller Jamal Malik who has now entered the finals of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, a gameshow hosted by an impressive Anil Kapoor.
Slumdog has those impressive sequences too, and everything else that gives it a Boyle badge. A camera on steroids, heart-rending terrain, wonderfully sketched characters and one man`s struggle to keep his head above the water. All told in this pacey, heady mix that`s cinema Boyle style!
So, is this a movie you need to watch? Hell, yeah! This is recommended material and the Sify Movies Desk feels Slumdog Millionaire is for all those who need to rediscover hope!
Yes, Earth Kitt`s gone. But her Catwoman will be immortalised forever and roams the earth in the form of Naomi Campbell. Get set for a New Year brawl!
Does one need a reason as to why not to party with Lohan? Disney`s wild-child has Catfight and DUI on her list of to-do-things tonight. Want a ride?
She`s mellowed down and is working her way back to the top with an awesome comeback. She parties less and works hard. But if you do jiggy with her when she`s letting her hair down, you`re bound to get a warning. No, not from the cop, not your mom but of all the people in the world, the lousy rapper and ex-husband, K-Fed!
There are a number of things this soul-stirring singer could do. She could either throw up on your designer wear after a drinking binge or give you one tight slap. You`d be lucky if she chooses to dance topless instead.
You never know when he’d start jumping on your couch. He could even ruin all your favourite numbers with a godawful Karaoke version. If given a choice, we`d opt for his Elvis impersonation...it`s a safer bet.
Keira Knightley`s mom is fine with her daughter shooting love scenes. In fact, Keira and she worked on Keira`s latest project The Edge of Love. It deals with Dylan Thomas and his lovers, and involves quite a few love scenes.
The vote also marks a departure from the size zero debate after 11 per cent thought Nigella Lawson was a definite choice. Here’s the entire list:
Tied at No 2—Dannii Minogue: Thunder from down under
Eleven per cent voted for Kylie`s younger sister and this is far from surprising because a Playboy issue featuring Danii sold out in under four days. The singer is currently a judge on the X Factor and is part of a number of other reality shows. She was also a judge on Australia`s Got Talent—we couldn`t agree more!
Tied at No 2—Nigella Lawson: Hottest dish there is
Sometimes referred to as the `queen of food porn` for her overtly sexual presentation of her famous cookery show, Nigella was on every guest list following the success of her cookery books. Nigella Bites, Nigella Feasts and the latest, Nigella Express, have become hot favourites on kitchen shelves worldwide. And with 11 per cent of the votes, it seems she is on people’s minds, too.
No 3—Melanie Brown: Not that scary now is she?
Scary Spice took home nine per cent of the votes and that could just make Posh smash the China at home. After the Spice Girls` split, Mel B’s solo career did miles better than the other girls’—her debut Hot hit #4 on the charts after its release. She is now dating Stephen Belafonte, a movie producer.
No 4—Madonna: Body of evidence
Looks like the list came with a spot for the elderly. Madonna at 49 is still sexy and five per cent of voters have nodded their head to that. By employing a strict exercise regiment and diet control, Guy Ritchie`s wife (and tormentor), seems to have dusted the sands of time from her face (and those legs) to achieve the impossible—beating Elizabeth Hurley, who is to our angst, missing from the poll altogether!
No 5—Lilly Allen: You can smile now!
Her single Smile climbed to the top of the charts in July 2006 and held ground for a long while. The Welsh singer is also very vocal in her opinions and frequently takes digs at drug lord Amy Winehouse. She even once said that anyone who buys Paris Hilton`s debut album `must be killed off`. We liked her immediately! Some beauty, some talent and an attitude that kills.
The US state of Tennessee gave the rest of the world two very important gifts. They may have had a gap of hundreds of years between them, but modern history will always remember their names in gold.Megan Fox and Jack Daniel`s—separated by the years but brought together for the first time in this exclusive feature. One`s the world`s sexiest woman alive and the other is the planet`s favourite whiskey. And they said happiness doesn`t come with a name. Absolutely, it comes with two names.

She wasn`t joking about her hit song Bootylicious. Curvaceous, bodacious are the `cious` terms that come to mind as you see this voluptuous singer move across the screen. While she strutted, pranced and rolled about in scorching orange for Crazy in Love, she gave the dessert belle a whole new meaning when she swiveled erotically on the sand in a sequined outfit for Baby Boy.
If there`s a kickass hip-hop dancer, then it`s definitely Ciara. She beats all the rest when it comes to energy. This fleet-footed artist might not have the oomph, she might not have the fancy costumes but her hardcore hip-hop hot steps are enough to gravitate the spotlight towards her and churn out enthusiastic Ciara imitators.
She`s not known for just boosting the butt fetish in women. This once-upon-a-time group dancer who was seen moving in the background of Janet Jackson`s That`s the way love goes made a big splash on the music scene with her hit single If you had my love. Till date no one can shake away that shimmying image in silver to a mix of jazz, house and Latin soul. She followed it up with several other groovy numbers that were sure-fire hits on the dance floor.
Tough cookie is a term that would crumble in front of Missy Elliot`s life, accomplishments and why, even her moves. This five-time Grammy award winner lets nothing get in the way, not her abusive childhood, not her weight issues. The hit track Get Ur Freak On is proof. Not convinced? The track begins with a line in Japanese - Kore kara minna de mechakucha odotte... sawagou, sawagou, meaning `From this point, everyone`s going to be dancing recklessly... let`s make some noise, let`s make some noise.` And so everyone did.
The Queen of Pop has got to be in this list especially after her record-earning Sticky & Sweet tour. If the top hat, the whip and the corsets and what she did with them aren`t proof, take a look at her Sorry video. The flexi moves in the lavender leotard make you want to be 50 and that hot.
There was a spurt of belly dancing classes across the globe once this Colombian hit the screens. Whenever Wherever surged into the veins of even those with two left feet as it took the world by storm. People thudded away on the dance floor till the DJ tired of sitting jobless with no other track to spin. They bumped, they ground, they butted each other but they never gave up on trying to sway like Shakira. The DJ`s went on high alert when Hips Don`t Lie hit the charts.
Actually it`s not like she has great moves. She makes great use of space. But what makes her tick is that even the teeniest step is exaggerated and ladled with oomph. Seen the video of Humps?
The princess of pop strutted right into our hearts in a tiny school uniform while crooning Hit me baby. And she kept at it till we went Toxic with her moves. But by then we were neck deep in loving her saucy numbers that we couldn`t redeem ourselves from the trap of cheesy tracks that (we hate to admit it) are great dance numbers.
And no, it wasn`t just Madonna on the 80`s dance front. The youngest Jackson shared it. Janet`s Rhythm Nation is an entire album that`s holy to those who love the dance floor. She however outdid herself with Velvet Rope. Together Again gave way to feel-good moves that still possess us every time a radio station decides to recycle it for one of those Sunday-evenings-at-home.
The High School Musical star has danced her way to a fan following clubbed with a great voice. But we must admit that what clinched it was her nude shots that got leaked on to the web.
We wait and watch. Will she too go the way of Britney Spears? A Disney child who shed the s
