"Oscar Millionaire" arrived !!!


The Oscar winning team of 'Slumdog Millionaire' was greeted with tears of joy, garlands and champagne at the airport Mumbai on its return from Resul Pookutty holds his Oscar trophy on arriving at the Mumbai airport.

Sound technician Resul Pookutty and actor Irrfan Khan were virtually mobbed by a large crowd of onlookers who had gathered at the Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, while Azharuddin and Rubina - the two slum kids who acted in the movie - were the cynosure of all eyes.
As they stepped out of the airport, the family members of both kids hugged them with tears of joy at their achievement.

When Pookutty stepped out, a cheering crowd offered him a bottle of champagne which he opened to a huge round of applause. All the team members were then garlanded by friends,
, relatives and fans. Pookutty was taken to his home in Goregaon suburb of northwest Mumbai in an open car.
