I agree with Suzy's comments.
At least Danny Boyle had the good will to set up the trust fund.
from what is reported, it should take care of them till they're 18.
I have been to Mumbai several times and there are scores of movies that make it big but child artists like this are paid paltry one off sums and left to fend on their own. none of this gets reported or is visible to international media.
This particular production treated their child actors a lot better than others, even local ones.
A lot of things take time in India for various reasons. Its a sad truth that things arent always straightforward especially with housing.
