MUMBAI (India) - FROM the shantytown's corrugated tin roofs to its squalid streets, proud relatives and neighbors cheered and embraced the two child stars of the Oscar-winning film 'Slumdog Millionaire' who returned home on Thursday.

Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail, who portrays Salim, the hero's brother, displayed some fancy Bollywood moves as he danced to the throbbing music from the movie, embodying the exuberant spirit of its popular song, 'Jai Ho' - 'Be Victorious.' His father, Mohammed Ismail, wore a spotless white shirt and trousers and looked on in pride as the 10-year-old entertained the crowd in the Bandra slum, north of central Mumbai.
