Mini Biography
Freida Pinto traversed the modeling circuit in Mumbai [represented by Elite Model Management India] for two years before gaining her big break when director Danny Boyle picked her out in the audition process to play the female lead, Latika, for his project Slumdog Millionaire (2008). In a promo interview, Boyle likened spotting her to his discovery of Kelly Macdonald for Trainspotting.
Surprisingly, Freida, who studied at Mumbai's St. Xaviers College, only began taking acting classes [she has done amateur theatre before] after completing her debut film - when she attended a three-month workshop by Barry John, the veteran theatre guru.
Between 2006-07, she anchored 'Full Circle', a travel show which was telecast on Zee International Asia Pacific. She went on assignments to Afghanistan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Fiji among other countries.

Watched the movie. She looks gorgeous in it. She looks even better at the Golden Globe award and Oscar last night.

Freida Pinto, who was an unknown face before her film Slumdog Millionaire became a huge hit, recently took to the catwalk at renowned designer Dolce & Gabbana's fashion show in Italy.
Petite Freida looked a million bucks in her frilly mini-dress, as she appeared on the ramp at the Milan fashion week, reports The Sun.
She was flanked by Hollywood actress Scarlet Johansson and Kate Hudson , as she flaunted the frilly dress onstage.
Freida Pinto's acclaimed flick Slumdog Millionaire took the Oscars by storm.
Meanwhile, Freida has been signed up for a Woody Allen flick.
