Slumdog Millionaire 'Salim' Beaten By Dad!
Monday, March 2, 2009What two stark contrasting scenes we have here! Azharuddin, who played the role of young Salim in the Slumdog Millionaire was being beaten by his father for being disobedience.
As the 10 years old child actor was exhausted by a heroic homecoming gathering and the long haul LA flight, he refused his father's request to show him off to journalists and the local people; something like showing a trophy.
What ensued next was something like a scene in the Slumdog Millionaire movie and this time it was for real! Azharuddin received slapping and kicking from his tuberculosis sufferer father and ran back inside to his house trying to seek shelter to hide.
Even the child's mother who is blind in one eye had to beg his 45 years husband to stop the beating. Luckily, neighbors and passer-by managed to put a stop to the beating and Ismail later apologized for beating his son due to "not knowing himself at that moment."
This is a real shock for us as the boy was seen being lifted by his father as he return from LA.
