Dev Patel & Freida Pinto Dating Each Other
Rohan Antao blames Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire for the reported romance between Freida and her co-star Dev Patel, six years her junior.
“She ended it with me after getting close to Dev Patel. Now everywhere I go I see them on billboards. I am devastated,” the 24-year-old Antao said.
About the Oscar-winning movie, he stated, “I hate the film. It wrecked my relationship. As soon as it became a success and Freida started spending all her time with Dev, she ended it,” he added.
Antao, a Mumbai-based marketing executive, said the two met six years ago. He proposed to her in 2007, but Slumdog Millionare changed their life.
“The film bosses didn’t want her to be engaged. It would affect the whole emphasis of the film the love story. I had no say in it.”
Kareena & Farhan To Act Together
The Rock On Guy and the Tashan babe are all set to scorch the big screen as they have been signed by Sudhir Mishra to play the leads in his next flick.

Farhan says, “I’m looking forward to working with Kareena. She’s been a friend for many years. This script gives both of us a chance to try something we haven’t done before. We are in the process of finalising the deal.”
