In an attempt to escape the real-life slums of Mumbai, the father of Slumdog Millionaire sweetie Rubina Ali is reportedly trying to illegally sell his 9-year-old daughter for about $300,000.
Rafiq Qureshi unknowingly spoke to the British tabloid News of the World and offered several shocking allegations as to why chasing in on his daughter's fame is acceptable.
"We've got nothing out of [Slumdog Millionaire]." claims Qureshi. "They gave some money at the start, but they gave nothing afterwards. They gave us around 150,000 rupees [$3,000]. I have to consider what's best for me, my family and Rubina's future."
But his allegations run counter to statements from filmmakers and local officials.
