Was "Slumdog Millionaire" supposed to portray modern day India?

or wherever that location was? sorry i didn't know if it was India or not.

And also, if you know, how were women in India (or that location) treated at that time? Like i'm guessing they were mostly thought of as the caretaker of the children, and they didn't work like the husband did, right?

Thanks so much!!
