Slumdog Millionaire’s child artist Rubina Ali, who was born and brought up in a slum in India, has now been the newspaper headline once again, but this time only for wrong reason.

However, Rafiq dismissed the report. He said that he had met an Arabian sheikh in a hotel in order to discuss about an ad film for his daughter. However, the website claimed that some journalists were present at the hotel in disguise of Arab Sheikh to whom Rafiq met. According to the website, Rafiq said that he was going to sell his daughter, seeking a better life for his family as well as for his daughter.
Meanwhile, Rubina Ali’s mother Kushi does not want her daughter to be sold off and she has accused her husband for attempting to sell her daughter for money. Rather, Kushi wants Rubina to be sent to a boarding school where her daughter would have access to education. No doubt that is what people of all sphere of life want to see at this moment. Rubina Ali is a talented girl who could flourish her acting potential in future if she is provided with due support and necessary guidance.
