The Slumdog Millionaire stars take their on-screen romance off-screen, and into the public eye.
Ever since their hit movie was released, there have been rumors about a supposed off-screen romance. For months, gossip rags have accused her of having a secret husband and him of being a wife-stealer. Even their co-star Anil Kapoor has claimed that the two share a genuine sense of chemistry. And yet, when asked outright by interviewers on the Academy Awards red carpet (and elsewhere) if they were an item, Freida Pinto and Dev Patel denied everything.
Well, it seems that the time for denials is over. Because, as was the case with Angelina and Brad, actions are … Read More
How to act like Freida Pinto, even if we don't all look like her.
At first look, taking advice from How To Love Like A Hot Chick: The Girlfriend-to-Girlfriend Guide to Getting the Love You Deserve might seem imprudent. The authors, Jodi Lipper and Cerina Vincent (from Not Another Teen Movie) are two decidedly hot chicks, so the idea that they'd be able to relate to everyday Plain Janes is as believable as The Supermodel's Guide to Getting Pants Hemmed.
But, then, beauty is both relative and subjective. While looking pretty might get you free things, … Read More
The Slumdog Millionaire paramours claim to be just friend in real life.
Evidently, you people (and by "you people" I mean film-goers, critics and anyone with a heart) really liked that Slumdog Millionaire. And the Academy, often accused of heartlessness, dug it too; to the tune of eight Oscars including the coveted Sound Mixing Award. But what's a great love story without its paramours?The movie (even with all of its excellence in Cinematography and Film Editing) goes nowhere without an incredible dynamic between Jamal and Latika, Dev Patel and Freida Pinto, respectively. But did that on-screen love affair spill off of the soundstage? We mentioned a while back a rumor that Read More
Does the Slumdog Millionaire star have a neglected secret husband?
Hachi-machi. Before we get too far into this crazy rumor, let's start with the fact that it's origin is the Daily Mail. It's a famous UK tabloid, famous for getting it wrong rather frequently. They're the ones that butchered it on the last weird Verne Troyer (not Troy Verner, mom) rumor and left us holding the bag.
On to the likely fake (or misleading) news, per the Daily Mail, Freida Pinto may have a secret husband. Not a husband who likes to keep secrets (though he could also be that), but a wedding that took place on the … Read More
Nominating Slumdog Millionaire as the fairy-tale love story of the year.
Two fairy-tale love stories are wooing theatergoers this season. If you have but $12.50 (as ludicrous New York City rates go) to spend, skip Twilight, the teen vampire tale, and see Slumdog Millionaire instead.
The Golden Globe Best Picture nominee is about two destitute Indian orphans from Mumbai whose fates take them on two different, equally harrowing paths before reuniting, in part, thanks to the television game show, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
The story of star-crossed lovers set apart is not new. Jamal and Latika could be Romeo and Juliet, with their houses divided divided by … Read More
