I love these cuties..



I love these cuties.. The child actors of Slumdog Millionaire.. Who would believe that they are from Slums!!?

I love India, because it happens only in India! It was very confronting to watch that movie, as an Indian.. But in India, you can produce that movie, may not be in China! India can accept that there's poverty in India and still we are on the right track of progress - not even Australia (I've seen 'slums' terrible than Indian ones in Australian aboriginal communities in Tennant Creek. But Aussies wont accept it).

When is Australia going to get its first Aboriginal PM?




We got a black American president. Well.. When is Australia going to get its first Aboriginal PM? 40 years from now? How will it happen, huh? Australia does not allow them to come to the mainstream of social and political life and take their rightful position.. They dont have a definite plan to educate them or a reservation policy as in India. Australia does not have a single aboriginal person in its both houses of government.

There's a loooong way to go for the Aussies white supremacy.. The signs are written very clear on the walls.. not an aboriginal, black, brown, asian face on the many online/newspapers or in television media.. If at all something is there, that is just to portray the negativity - like the Gautham Gambir event in Cricket at the moment (only exception may be Sachin who gets comparatively good comments in Aussie media). As a person live in Australia I do really feel this. There's no racism in the peripherals .. but a lack of willingness to accept the goodness in minorities - aboriginals, asian, Indians without the barrier of color.

Australia has to work hard to come out of this divisive problem...
