Azharuddin, who played the young slum boy in Danny Boyle's Oscar-award winning Slumdog Millionaire, is on the writer lane.

The young boy, who garnered the attention of Westerners thanks to the movie, is ready to pen his autobiography, which will mainly be based on Mumbai slums.

He is also expected to narrate his trip to the US to attend the 81st Academy Awards where he joins up with the rest of the cast and crew, including Dev Patel, Freida Pinto, director Danny Boyle and the music composer A R Rahman.

There was a recent controversy involving the kid and his father who reportedly beat him. He had even apologised later.
