William Morris Agency and Creative Artists Agency (CAA),<\/strong> the world\u2019s biggest talent agency which recently signed actor Freida Pinto to its books, are looking to bring on board fresh Indian talent<\/strong> to cast in Hollywood films and to work with on co-productions. <\/p>\n

The appetite to sign Bollywood talent comes<\/strong> in the wake of a global surge of interest in cinema out of India, boosted by the runaway success of Slumdog Millionaire<\/strong>. The $15 million (Rs75.3 crore) budget film, which tells the story of a street urchin\u2019s mishaps in his quest for love, grossed $343.5 million at the box office worldwide and helped put Indian talent and stories on the map. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe interest has been building to where we are now, and it is just set to continue,\u201d<\/strong> said Christina Marouda, director of the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles, which closed this weekend. \u201cThere is definitely a lot of interest in representing talent, with all the big talent agencies, including William Morris, CAA and International Creative Management (ICM), arranging meetings around the festivals. CAA is even forming a group to look at Indian talent specifically.\u201d
