Finally, 'Slum dog Millionaire' has been able to grab eight Oscars and Bollywood has been given recognition by Hollywood. Although Directors like Satyajit Ray had left their imprints on the Western cinema yet Slum dog Millionaire has created history by winning eight Oscars out of ten for which it was nominated.
It is a great day for the Indian cinema and also for the entertainment Industry. A. R. Rahman's music has always been original and unique in more than one aspect. He is one of the persons who always keep on experimenting with all available avenues. His music has been recognized by the Jury of Oscars. It is a matter of great respect for the musician. Let us congratulate the whole Cast of Slum dog Millionaire for winning Oscars and pride for Indian art and cinema.
Today, on this occasion, I remember Professor morse's words.
Professor morse was asked in an interview, "In the course of your experiments at the university, there must have been occasions when you felt you were at a dead end, knowing not which way to turn."
"Of course, yes," he answered. "Such situations happened more than once."
"Then, what was your reaction?"
"I prayed for light, more light."
"Did God give you what you asked for?"
"Yes, He did," answered the Professor. "So it is that I have always felt that I never deserved the honours that came to me from Europe and America. All this is due to God's help. I wasn't in any way superior to other scientists. The Lord had to bestow this gift on mankind, and He had to choose someone. I am grateful that He chose to reveal it through me."
We can easily understand why the inventor's first message over the telegraph was, "What God hath wrought!"
Whenever we find ourselves at the end of the tether, knowing not which way to turn, let us go to God. And when the answer comes, let us not forget to praise the Lord, "Not mine, but Thine be the glory, O Lord!"
