Jai Ho! From mobile ring tones to tea shops, the winning spirit is all over the place. No wonder the Congress has lapped up the Oscar winning song of "Slumdog Millionaire" as the main campaign jive. The number represents the spirit of India, its unparallel resilience. But does "Slumdog Millionaire" represent India? Or just a piece of fascinating cinema? Or a prejudiced peddling of India's poverty to the west?
What's lost is the assault the film mounts on Indian self-esteem. It's a matter of shame that not only we allow foreigners to portray such a derogatory picture of India
