Just
days
after
Amitabh
Bachchan
blasted
Danny
Boyle's
Slumdog
Millionaire
saying
it
showed
India
in
poor
light
the
movie
is
part
of
a
fresh
controversy
now.
The
General
Secretary
of
the
slum
dweller's
association
has
filed
a
defamation
suit
against
music
director
A
R
Rahman
and
actor
Anil
Kapoor
alleging
the
movie's
title
tags
the
people
living
in
the
slum
as
dogs.
Tapeshwar
Vishwakarma
who
filed
the
case
says
that
the
movie
has
depicted
the
people
living
in
the
slum
in
bad
taste
and
used
derogatory
terms
against
them.
Vishwakarma
argues
that
the
use
of
the
term
dog
in
the
movie
is
defamatory.
The
slum
dwellers
have
approached
the
State
and
the
National
Human
Rights
Commission
for
necessary
action
to
be
taken
against
Rahman
and
Anil
Kapoor.
