• Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Boyle is flying to Mumbai to “rescue” the child stars who appeared in the Oscar-winning film

    Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Boyle is flying to Mumbai to “rescue” the child stars who appeared in the Oscar-winning film.

    It was recently reported that two of the child stars, who live in Mumbai’s slums, have had their homes destroyed.

    Boyle, 52, is reportedly concerned about the welfare of the two children – Azhar Ismail, ten, and Rubina Ali, nine, after their shacks were demolished.

    A trust worth £500,000 was set up to give the children schooling and apartments.

    However, a source said: “Their lives do not appear to be any better.”
