Slumdog sweeps- Rules Oscars.

Its really ruling the roost in the Oscars. As the academy award function is underway, I am deeply pleased that Slumdog Millionaire has bagged 8. A R Rahman, the Indian international music director has become the first Indian to win two Oscars in a ceremony held at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles and watched by the world. He is also the fourth Indian ever to make to it. He has bagged for best original score and for the song "Jai Ho".

Resul Pookutty is yet another Indian to win for best sound mixing. Danny Boyle won for best director and Simon Beautulay, for best adapted screenplay.

Sean Penn and Kate Winslet won for best actor and actress (for a different movie). It's just now coming in that Slumdog has won the best picture award too. I am speechless.
