Slumdog Millionaire took no name actors and propelled them into some of the most sought after names in Hollywood.

Despite their success, Freida Pinto seems to be having much more luck with her movie career than current beau Dev Patel.

Dev Patel is finding it hard to promote his latest movie ‘The Last Airbender’, after the film was hit with bad reviews by the critics.

The 20-year-old actor took on the role of Prince Zuko in M Night Shyamalan’s fantasy film which has been panned by the critics, Playlist magazine reported.

“You know, you can’t lie and say that every single review written about the film is wrong,” Patel said.

The movie is a feature film adaptation of the animated series ‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’.

“But for me, it’s really tricky. Because at this stage in my career I didn’t have as much say as I would have liked in the film. Yes, there are parts in it that truly amaze me. But there are others, you know…,” Patel said.

The critics were brutal. Hopefully, Dev had more luck with his next project, whatever that may be.
