Dev Patel to appear on 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' for a cause
Thesun.co.uk reports that the 18-year-old Dev will appear on the show along with director Danny Boyle. They will raise money for Britain's children charity - Railway Children.
The 'Slumdog Millionaire' plot revolves around the hero (played by Dev) winning the Indian version of the quiz show.
A spokesperson for the show said: 'We were approached by Railway Children about doing the special and we think it would be fantastic. Danny and Dev would play together, as with all our celebrity specials, but filming depends on their availability.'
A source added: 'Danny and Dev are keen to keep on giving back to the street kids and have been talking to Railway Children about appearing on 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire?' Filming of the special depends on when both are available, as they are in huge demand following their Oscar success. But we hope it will happen later this year. To have Dev back in the Millionaire hot-seat would be brilliant, and would do a lot for the charity.'

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a 2008 American drama film, inspired by the 1921 short story of the same name written by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The film was directed by David Fincher, written by Eric Roth and Robin Swicord, and stars Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. The film was released in the United States on December 25, 2008.
The film received thirteen Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor for Pitt, and Best Supporting Actress for Taraji P. Henson. It won three Oscars for Art Direction, Makeup, and Visual Effects, and has tied the record for the most nominated film not to win the Academy Award for Best Picture.
PLOT
On the day that Hurricane Katrina hits New Orleans, elderly Daisy Williams nee Fuller is on her deathbed in a New Orleans hospital. At her side is her adult daughter, Caroline. Daisy asks Caroline to read to her aloud the diary of Daisy's lifelong friend, Benjamin Button. Benjamin's diary recounts his entire extraordinary life, the primary unusual aspect of which was his aging backwards, being born an old man who was diagnosed with several aged diseases at birth and thus given little chance of survival, but who does survive and gets younger with time. Abandoned by his biological father, Thomas Button, after Benjamin's biological mother died in childbirth, Benjamin was raised by Queenie, a black woman and caregiver at a seniors home. Daisy's grandmother was a resident at that home, which is where she first met Benjamin. Although separated through the years, Daisy and Benjamin remain in contact throughout their lives, reconnecting in their forties when in age they finally match up. Some of the revelations in Benjamin's diary are difficult for Caroline to read, especially as it relates to the time past this reconnection between Benjamin and Daisy, when Daisy gets older and Benjamin grows younger into his childhood years

SRK Returns Home After Surgery !!
No heavy-duty action scenes for actor Shah Rukh Khan for the next six months, say doctors who successfully operated upon him for a nagging pain in the left shoulder. So, in effect Shah Rukh will be on a forced break for six weeks to fully recuperate. However, he will host the Filmfare awards.
On Monday King Khan underwent an arthroscopic surgery for a nagging pain in his left shoulder.
A team of three doctors performed the surgery which lasted for 45 minutes.
He had injured his shoulder a long time ago, but the pain aggravated in December last year.
His doctors said given his busy schedule it made sense for him to get operated before it was too late.
Currently, Shah Rukh has only two films on the floors - Karan Johar's My Name Is Khan and Viveck Vaswani's Dulha Mil Gaya
