This is an unofficial website dedicated to Freida Pinto. I do not know Freida or have any affiliation with her. All copyright is to their respective owners and no copyright infrigment ever intended. In case of any feedback or issues, please contact webmaster. There are online.
Apparently, Freida is currently in Israel preparing to shoot her new project, Miral! This must be her new project! Exciting stuff! It’s also great that she is choosing different and unique directors to work with.
Freida Pinto, the Indian actress who starred in the Oscar-winning movie, Slumdog Millionaire, arrived in Israel last week ahead of shooting for a new film by critically acclaimed writer-director Julian Schnabel.
Schnabel, whose recent film, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly won awards and praise, will begin shooting his next project, Miral, a joint French-Israeli production in April.
The movie is set in Jerusalem, and it chronicles Hind Husseini’s effort to establish an orphanage in the city following the creation of the state in 1948. It is scheduled to be released in 2010.
Although the filming does not start for another month, Pinto arrived early in order to get into character, the production team said.
Finally, I have put up the new layout featuring those gorgeous images from the Elle shoot! I never really liked the previous look, wheras this one will stick for a while. It’s got a wintry feel to it, which is not what I was going for, but I just had to use these pictures! Enjoy the layout, and feedback is always appreciated!
As you may of noticed, I haven’t updated the site recently with any recent news or images featuring Freida. I do not even need to cover the Bond girl rumor, as Freida has already said it is not true. What I have been doing is setting up the new layout for the site, theres just one small thing that needs to be added, and then I can put the new layout up. For now, you can read this very interesting interview with Freida, which features what Freida makes of all the rumors.
This Mumbai girl has made India very proud. From Hollywood projects to being a brand ambassador along with being featured in every leading fashion magazine, Freida Pinto has arrived. She spoke to CNN-IBN’s chief entertainment correspondent Rohit Khilnani about her herself, Slumdog Millionaire future projects, personal life and more.
Rohit Khilnani:It has been a long journey for you. Tell us about it. Freida Pinto: It has been wonderful ever since I started on Slumdog Millionaire. It has been rewarding, we have had our ups and downs but I have learnt a lot in the last one-and-half years. And I know I wouldn’t have been able to do so had I not got this opportunity. In terms of growth it has been very helpful.
Freida is in the March issue of Giant, with Dwayne Johnson on the cover as she took part in the Young Hollywood article. I have added two shots from the shoot, where Freida just looks amazing! Also, I have added a video, which you can view below, of Freida on set talking about her recent sucess. In other news, the site will yet again be having a new layout soon, which I am currently getting ready. I haven’t really taken to this one, so you’ll get a totally new look very soon!
After attending the Chanel Fashion Show at Paris Fashion Week, Freida headed to the Post Show after in celebration of Another Magazine and Chanel’s show. It’s great to see her getting cosy with Karl Lagerfeld, obviously he was taken by her utter beauty, so had to take a picture! In more good news, I have added two new shoots to the gallery that we didn’t have before. There is the shoot for Moving Pictures which features co-star Dev Petal and a shoot for Venice magazine! Freida looks phenomenal in both and are certainly some of my faves! In bad news though, it seems as if the rumor about Freida being the new face of Estée Lauder were false, but we still have hope yet. Here’s what Freida said on the subject.
“It’s chaos,” marveled Freida Pinto, who says she dreamed of attending a Chanel show. “I didn’t expect to be sitting on the front row,” she gushed, adding that the speculation she has a contract with Estee Lauder, is but “a lovely rumor.”
Freida is featured in a new spread for Elle magazine! Thanks to JustJared.com, we have two scans from the magazine and Freida looks really stunning (I think i’m getting tired of saying that … not!)! Hopefully, we’ll be able to get you the full spread soon! Meanwhile, below is a small part of the article featured in the magazine.
Need we say more than she played the heartbreakingly beautiful love interest in Slumdog Millionaire? Pinto, 24, has yet to sign on to her next project. But as the star of this year’s best picture darling, the former Mumbai model has the luxury to take her time with her next pick.
Can you believe it? Freida is currently attending Paris Fashion Week and was spotted at the Chanel show! She looks beyond amazing, in a white Chanel dress with her hair scraped back. The new Estée Lauder model has been strutting her stuff at Milan Fashion Week as well, so hopefully we’ll have some more pictures soon! Enjoy!
As previously reported, there was a rumor that Freida was going to become the new face of cosmetics company, Estée Lauder, and now she has made the deal, worth about $350,000! That’s great news for Freida and I can’t wait to see her ad campaigns that will surface once she’s started shooting. Below is a summary of the recent deal.
Freida Pinto has landed a £200,000 ($350k) deal to be the new face of Estee Lauder, according to reports. The Indian actress – who shot to fame after starring in the Oscar-winning Danny Boyle film Slumdog Millionaire – will join the likes of Liz Hurley and Gwyneth Paltrow by becoming the make-up company’s “spokesmodel”.
The deal will make Freida, 24, for the firm’s first Indian face, according to British newspaper The Sun. “Freida is hot property right now,” a source said. Freida’s spokesperson said he could not comment on the report before Estee Lauder releases a statement, but did say: “We are getting two or three offers every day from national as well as international firms.”
Pinto’s next movie role will be in a new Woody Allen film alongside Naomi Watts, Anthony Hopkins and Antonio Banderas. It starts filming in London in July.
Freida is busy travelling the world and was in Delhi, India to celebrate the cover of Vogue that she landed. You can view a video below of Freida talking about the cover and also her next project with Woody Allen. Under the cut, you can read an interesting interview from “The Times of India” with Freida where she announces that another film project will be announced shortly, I can’t wait! Enjoy!
How did you bag the Woody Allen film?
I am represented by CAA, one of the most powerful agencies in Hollywood. It was through them that I got this role. I met Woody Allen a few days after the Oscars and that’s how it happened.
Just to fill you in on what the site is up to, I am adding thousands of captures to the gallery of Freida at award shows, events, during interviews and much more. They are all much needed in the gallery, so I am in the process of adding a lot! Also, you may not have seen but Freida is featured in the video called “I Promise You” by artist, Dal Hothi! Freida looks stunning in the video, which you can view below! More updates to come, Enjoy!
