PINTO ADMITS SHE'S DATING PATEL

FREIDA PINTO has declared her love for her SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE co-star DEV PATEL after previously shooting down rumours of a real-life romance.
The pair played childhood sweethearts in the Oscar-winning movie, and their close friendship away from the cameras prompted rumours of a relationship.
They initially laughed off speculation their on-screen chemistry had developed behind closed doors - but now Pinto, 24, is happy to talk about boyfriend Patel, who she calls "a lovely boy".
She says, "The friendship blossomed after the film, it got even stronger. This is all new to us.”
