Overview

Danny Boyle’s critical and commercial smash follows the rags-to-possible-riches of a young man who lives in Mumbai’s slums, whose strong performance on Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, arouses suspicions that he might be cheating. As he recounts his story, however, it becomes clear that key events from his life have helped his success.
