Rubina Ali (L), who acted in 'Slumdog Millionaire" visits a neighbour at a slum where she resides in the northern suburb of Bandra in Mumbai January 27, 2009. Earlier this week Britain's Daily Telegraph quoted the parents of Rubina Ali and Azharuddin Ismail, who play slum kids Latika and Salim respectively, complaining that their children had not been cared for properly by the movie's makers. Producer Christian Colson, who believed that figures quoted in the British press were inaccurate, said "Immediately after we cast the kids, we put in place a plan of action for their future welfare, over and above the money we paid them; we did that in consultation with their parents."
