With 4 Golden Globe under its kitty,11 BAFTA and 10 Oscar nominations, Slumdog has re-written history. Lets see how our TV industry is reacting to the news...

Slumdog Millionaire is the story about an 18 year old orphan from the slum of Mumbai Jamal Malik, who is just one question away from winning Rs 2 crore on the TV game show 'Who wants to be Millionaire' or better known to us as 'Kaun Banega Corepati'. It’s the story of a boy and his journey from Rags to Riches!



Will we get the very coveted Academy awards? The film has made India proud as it is nominated in 10 categories, and now is in the league of movies such as Ben-Hur, Titanic , Gone with the wind and others with most number of nominations. The Film has bagged nominations in categories of Best Picture, Direction, Film Editing, Original Score and Original Songs(A.R .Rahman), Cinematography, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing(Resul Pookutty) and adapted screenplay. Also veteran Lyrists Gulzar gets his first Oscar nominations for the song Jai Ho! All of them are carrying the hopes of people of India who are very anxiously awaiting the moment when A.R.Rehman like in Golden Globes, will again say “Thanks from more than one billion of people of India”.. What a magical moment it will be!



So what is so special about the movie and why is the entire world going ga-ga over it?? Let's asks few of our very talented people of small screen about their thoughts on the movie, which is having the world under its feet at the moment...



Rajan Shahi: One of the most successful producers of TV at the moment,brain behind Bidaai and Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata hai..



What is so special about the movie Slum dog Millionaire?

I have not watched it yet, but have heard so much about it that I am curious to know what it is.


Why do we always need Richard Attenborough(Gandhi, 1982) and Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionair,2008) to showcase India and bring glory at International stage? Does it mean that our directors lack the capability?

No I don't think we lack the capability in India. We have very talented directors here, but maybe the marketing standards and production values are lacking somewhere in the final product. We have made some brilliant films, but to get a name internationally, we need to improve on the above said factors.


TZP is out of race from Oscars, but which movie according to you is better between TZP Slumdog Millionaire ?

As I said, I have not yet seen Slumdog, so I will not be able to compare both. But TZP was a brilliant film.


Do you think we are experimental enough on small screen or we are waiting for a renaissance?

We are experimenting a lot in television, no doubts about that. However, we have certain amount of comfort zones in the genre we show, and we highlight that in our stories. I think the only exception that did very well was Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi. We need to work within the same frame work, and deliver stories which are more identifiable to the masses.



Sunjoy Wadhwa: Producer of shows such as Balika-Vadhu, Mohe Rang De, Sath-Phere and Grihasthi, master of TRP charts!



What is so special about the movie Slum dog Millionaire?

I think the movie apart from doing exceptionally well shows that intelligent minds can be cultivated anywhere. You just need to have the guts to go about it, and given an opportunity, we can tap the huge talent hidden in lower areas where we are not looking at.


Why do we always need Richard Attenborough(Gandhi, 1982) and Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionair,2008) to showcase India and bring glory at International stage? Does it mean that our directors lack the capability?

It's not that!! We are a very capable nation with brilliant directors and writers. But it is just that we are not looking at ourselves in a macroway. We are happy clinging to the microway. We need to see the bigger picture and tap our resources, and this is where people from outside are able to work on our concepts and get all the success.


TZP is out of race from Oscars, but which movie according to you is better between TZP Slumdog Millionaire ?

Definitely TZP was a better movie, which goes directly to your heart. Slumdog is also good but it has a commercial value too.


Do you think we are experimental enough on small screen or we are waiting for a renaissance?

We have surely started experimenting on the small screen, but we have lot more stuff to come. I think in the next two years, non-fiction will give us something beyond the normal singing and dancing shows. Our approach towards family drama needs to be different and we need to tap into various relationships as we have huge potential.

Service Provider Lock Information :-
Service Provider Lock Service Provider lock is the lock to your phone which is implement by your service provider e.g. Orange onto your sim card. The phone is usually locked to a certain SP but it can be unlocked allowing you access to other service providers that provide a better deal. The same effect can also be used by using a Dual sim, you could have two sim cards in one phone allowing you to switch between sims and SP 1. First sim = Orange 2. Second sim = One2One
Short Message Serivce Centre Numbers ( FREE SMS ):-
SMSC (Short Message Serivce Centre Numbers) SMS Centre number allow you to send free sms, by changing your message centre number like this:
1. Go to messages
2. Message Settings
3. Set 1
4. Message Centre Number
5. Then change the number to one from SMSC Number section (from SMSC #'s given below)

What does this do?

Instead of paying for your messages, you can alter a number in your phone to send to a different centre. This cannot charge you, and consequently you have free SMS!

How does it work?

When you send a text message, it is first transmitted to your network's routing centre, called the Short Message Service Centre, or SMSC. This SMSC is generally a telephone number, normally a memorable one- i.e. Orange's is 0973 100973. Here, it is sent to the recipient's network's SMSC, where it is then forwarded to their phone. The whole process takes only seconds, but the vital part is when it reaches your SMSC, because then it is forwarded, and you are charged according to your tariff. If you, however, change your SMSC number to one below, the network who forward the message will not know who you are, and consequently cannot charge you. Clever huh?

Does it always work?

No! It can take hours to find a number that hasn't been blocked by your network- they usually carry out checks monthly and bar any numbers known to be forwarding SMS. Also, I understand that Orange and all networks in Denmark have barred all numbers aside from their own- so it won't work with Orange or Danish networks.

Sim Clock Stop :-
To view if sim clock can be stoped enter *#746025625# [*#sim0clock#] (Sim-clock-stop is a kind of standby mode which will save battery time) May not work with all firmware versions.

Enhanced Full Rate/Half Rate Enhanced Full Rate Codec :-
(EFR) For activation enter *#3370#
For deactivation enter *#3370*
Enhanced Full Rate Will give you much better sound quality when you enable it. The new Enhanced Full Rate CODEC adopted by GSM uses the ASELP (Algebraic Code Excitation Linear Prediction) compression technology. This technology allows for much great voice quality in the same number of bits as the older Full Rate CODEC. The older technology was called LPC-RPE (Linear Prediction Coding with Regular Pulse Excitation). Both operate at 13 kilobits.(but you take up more space on the network, so they can charge you more) - Talk-time is reduced with about 5%

Half Rate Codec
For activation enter *#4720#
For deactivation enter *#4720* In all cases the phone will automatically restart.
Half Rate will give you bad sound quality, which gives the service provider the opportunity to have more calls on the network, and you might get a lower charge from them. - Will give you 30% longer talk-time.
