Here's the list of winners of the 81st Annual Academy Awards, with the Slumdog sweeping almost in all the categories it has been nominated for. Slumdog Millionaire has won a total of 8 awards.
Hail Rahman.
A.R. Rahman has won both Oscars for which he has been nominated for. More than the awards he gave a scintillating performance which dominated the performance of his competitor from the movie Wall-E. I watched the awards ceremony with my heart pounding and was literally shouting at the top of my voice when Rahman won both the awards. I feel proud with my chest bulging out. I am proud to be an Indian once again.
