This story has been everywhere lately because of its shocking nature. Rubina Ali, a child actress that starred in Slumdog Millionaire as a young version of Latikia, is reportedly for sale. The nine-year old's father, Rafiq Qureshi, told Great's Britain's News of the World that he listed his daughter for $300,000, a figure he increased after initially asking for just $75,000.
"I have to consider what's best for me, my family and Rubina's future," said Rubina's dad, who claims to be broke. Does that mean selling her is a good idea?
According to News of the World, Rubina's uncle confirmed the family upped the asking price following the success of Slumdog Millionaire. Shockingly, he said, "The child is special now. This is an Oscar child!" What are your thoughts on this disturbing story?
