About this listen

Adapted For The Film Slumdog Millionaire.

Eighteen-year-old Ram Mohammad Thomas has been arrested after answering twelve questions correctly on a TV quiz show to win one billion rupees. The producers have accused him of cheating his way to victory. Twelve extraordinary events in street-kid Ram's life - how he was adopted as a foundling orphan by a priest; came to have three names; fooled a professional hit man; even fell in love - give him the crucial answers.

In his warm-hearted tale lies all the comedy, tragedy, joy and pathos of modern India.

A different story than the movie but the same premise. The new stories kept it interesting.

Different from the movie

I read this book years ago and saw the movie when it came out. I didn't remember all the details and so it was like a new reading. It was tragic, realistic and then fantastical but it takes the reader on an irresistible journey. It's a heartwarming tale. Christopher Simpson's reading is excellent. I loved his accents, especially including the Australians. Well paced.

Beautiful story beautifully read.

I loved the movie, and while there are parallels and similarities to the movie, the book is different enough that it feels like a different story. You will laugh and cry.

Great
