    Correct, but in a strange wayBy: Varun | 26-Feb-2009 Reply | Forward Everytime i clicked the link to the next page i hopes there would probably be a useful thing on the next page. Unfortunately the entire article is full off confused but solidly americentric rant with India intertwined. Otherwise quite a sophomoric observation of the expat experience in India - but the fact that such modest article gets printed in a national daily points to one thing - Indians are very eager to get the western nod at every corner. Here, the article and I agree.

    Celebrating all things IndianBy: darkndusky | 25-Feb-2009 Reply | Forward What a wonderful article !!! made my day to say the least. USA for all its entrepreneural success is suffering from irresponsible spending habits. Indians could teach Americans a thing or two about making ends meet....
    Journey half accomplishedBy: Rajeev | 25-Feb-2009 Reply | Forward Very well written article. I have worked in USA for 5 years and my stay in USA taught me so many good things about life. India is a great nation in many ways and no so great in another so many ways. If you look around, you will find these slumdogs everywhere and they all are aspiring to become millionaires. And only these slum-dogs will take our nation closer to the greatness, which India has been aspiring to achieve since independence and truly deserves it.

    Slumdog MillioniareBy: niranjan | 25-Feb-2009 Reply | Forward Kudos to Mr. Williamson for having such a poignant piece of article that aptly sums up the present anxiety and hope of greater friendship between two great nations. We hope to read more such write ups in future. Hats off Express for such a great piece of write up.
