Ali too was excited about her Bollywood debut and narrated their role while talking to reporters.

Bollywood actor Kunal Kapoor also said that they should continue getting opportunities in the Bollywood.

"It will be really sad if these kids are in the limelight for a bit and that they suddenly disappear, and they have to go back to exactly the same life that they left behind, because they have been exposed to a whole different new life. I just hope they keep getting chance that can elevate what they started off with. I just hope it''s not the end and it''s just the beginning," Kapoor said.

The two child actors are to receive new homes from the Indian authorities after the small budget movie swept the Oscars. Ali currently lives in a tiny hovel in the same rubbish strewn slum near railway tracks where Ismail lives.

The child stars were feted like true celebrities in India after they returned home, post Oscars.
