You sound like a generally unhappy individual. What do you like? Poverty is not the sole focus of the movie. This is a story, a love story, a story of hope which happens to be set in India, the real India. This is the undeniable reality faced by millions of its citizens. The producers make no attempt tolingerie moralise/demoralise the characters or their actions. You as the viewer are entitled to do so, but at your own peril. You will find little sympathy from other viewers. I really enjoyed this film!!!!
