Where are the producers of this movie? Why aren't these child actors receiving some of the profits from this enormous commercial success?

I agree totally.... if Danny won't even give them just pay...then he should face criminal charges.

How can the producers of Slumdog Millionaire get away with exploiting the child actors? Are there any child labor laws in India?

May God judge you Danny Boyle and may your flesh rot with your millions that you could never spend in a life time for exploting the children of India's slums.

In the end what profit will you have when your name is cursed by all who it and your money is burnt up like leaves in a fire?

Each of these children are deserving of rightful pay.

What a disgrace this Danny Boyle idiot is. This is exploitation in the upmost degree. $300 million in box office sales and his stars live in slums??!! WTF! Forget about some patronizing trust, if these actors would have been paid even a fraction of what they are worth, they would all be wealthy now by Indian standards. I may be one of the few who have never seen this movie, and now I never will. Shame on you Danny Boyle.
