Slumdog Millionaire Cast
Meet the Cast
Jamal (Dev Patel (younger Jamal played by Tanay Hemant Chheda and Ayush Mahesh Khedekar))
From Zero To HeroJamal Malik is the undisputed protagonist and hero of Slumdog Millionaire. You don't even get to argue on this one. The dude's by no means the biggest, baddest, hunkiest, or even t...

The first image we see in the entire film is a close-up on Jamal, who looks rather dazed, and probably not the least bit thrilled that some dude keeps blowing cigarette smoke in his face. That intr...
Jamal's Mother (Sanchita Choudhary)
