Jubilant, choreographed dance numbers shot in tumbling Mumbai train stations are not how most American films end. Yet when just such a scene is shot like the same in "Slumdog Millionaire", the moment is seems like nothing could have been a better end of this rags to riches story. Trust me it will make your spirits high. It would surely look like one of those Bollywood-meets-Hollywood ending, and the train station is key to the film. But for those who have been following the works of Simon Beaufoy can tell that dancing-amid-dilapidation is almost something that explains his characteristic. He had earlier featured line dance atop a gasometer in 1998's "Among Giants" and another dance sequence in 1997's "The Full Monty". "Dance is really important to me - it's another kind of wordless expression", admits Beaufoy.
