Long Shot: This long shot is taken at the end of the movie after the dance scene. Jamal and Latika finally reunite and celebrate with song and dance. This picture shows their happiness and joy of being together again, after years of heartache they find each other and are happy. Cut: In this particular scene of the movie, Jamal is in the toilet talking to his brother Salim which is rushing him to make it fast because of the customer waiting outside. This is an example of a ‘cut’ which is visual transition created in editing in which one shot is instantaneously replaced on screen by another. In this case this scene is replaced with the helicopter Amithab Bachan is in.
