Slumdog millionarie VS The white tiger


I noticed that there are a lot of similarities between "Slumdog millionarie" and "The white tiger". Both take place in India, in the present time and they both describe the drawbacks of the Indian democracy to mention a few. I chose to write about the similarity between the two main characters. Balram grows up as a poor boy in India, in the "Darkness" and so do Jamal. They both end up as successful men with a lot of money. The difference I chose to write about was the themes of the books. Slumdog millionaire is a love story, with a hero, a girl who needs to be rescued and a happy ending. The white tiger is a story about a man who makes a deal with the devil, he kills his master to get money. He has to sacrifice a lot to be successful and I think that "The white tiger" is due to this a more realistic story.
