"Slumdog Millionaire" Director Danny Boyle Buys Home for Boy Actor

Danny Boyle buys new flat for homeless 'Slumdog Millionaire' child star - Yahoo! News UK
Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle and the trust he set up for the
child stars of Slumdog Millionaire have bought a new home for
nine-year-old Azharuddin Ismail, who played the young Salim in the
movie.

The British filmmaker flew out to Mumbai to help after the nine-year-old's family was forced to leave their shanty town when it was demolished.

Danny said he hoped a new home could also be found for Rubina Ali - who was also left homeless after authorities razed her house - before the monsoon rains in June. The £33,000 apartment bought for Azharuddin and his family is near to the boy's school.
