Danny Boyle has been left frustrated by the cash demands from the parents of the child stars of Slumdog Millionaire.
The Oscar winning director and Slumdog Millionaire producer, Christian Colson, pledged to set up a trust fund for the education of two of the film's child stars - Rubina Ali and Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail - and also allocated £31,000 for new houses after their makeshift homes were torn down by the Mumbai government.
However, Boyle is reported to be stunned by fresh demands from the children's parents.
They claim the funds aren't enough to sustain the lifestyle they have become accustomed to following the success of the film, and a spokesperson for the family asked the Hindustan Time: "Where is the swimming pools and the bungalow?"
Boyle flew to India recently to setlle the dispute but was left frustrated after their meeting.
A spokesman for the trust set up for the child actors, Noshir Dadrawala, said, "We believe that the children are being badly advised. There are properties available located in nearby suburbs.
"We have made many attempts to settle this but now Danny has said that if they don't agree by January, then the money will be given to other charities
