Freida roped in by Woody Allen

This is the difference that can be brought about by a single film with a mammoth success.

Freida Pinto, the female lead of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ has been roped in by none other than the acclaimed film maker Woody Allen for his new movie.

No one knew Freida before Danny Boyle's film happened and it has to be ascertained that her looks are not that of a lass who normally gets noticed as a potential Bollywood heroine.

So Freida could not have asked for more than the perfect launch pad called ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ which has made her an overnight international celebrity and is taking her rapidly forward.

Her film to be directed by Woody Allen will start production in July.

For all those people who do not know anything about the Hollywood director, take this sample of his achievements. He has won three Academy Awards and has been nominated a total of 21 times. That is six times as a director, fourteen times as a screen writer and once as an actor.

Penelope Cruz, the winner of the best actress in a supporting role in the 81st Academy Awards won it for her role in “Vicky Cristina Barcelona’ made by Woody Allen.

Freida great going girl!
