When Slumdog Millionaire was in theaters, there were few songs as big as “Jai Ho”. In my mind, the union of actors, dancers and music doesn’t get much better than the end credit scene. A.R. Rahman’s “Jai Ho” bursted in lock step with Dev Patel, Freida Pinto and the entire cast. It had the choreographic precision of an exceptional music video, but it was so much more than that. “Jai Ho” melded perfectly with the characters’ stories. It was simultaneously their final chapter and a new beginning.
