Never thought I would hear the words come out of Dev Patel and Freida Pinto’s mouth, “I want to do Bollywood!” <\/strong>Both have become superstars since their roles in Oscar darling Slumdog Millionaire, however their Hollywood careers have been less than stellar.<\/p>\n

Dev’s movie “The Last Airbender” frightfully bombed at the box office in the US and Freida’s lastest film, “Miral” has been getting poor reviews.<\/strong> I was really hoping they would be the breakout actors which gave Hollywood the famous South Asian face.<\/p>\n

Freida Pinto has revealed she would star in an Indian film <\/strong>but only if she “loves” the script.<\/p>\n

The Slumdog Millionaire actress said that the same rules apply to all roles she is offered, whether they are from Hollywood, Bollywood or anywhere else.<\/p>\n

“Quite contrary to what people believe, I haven’t said yes to every international script that has come my way. I have said no to quite a few,” Pinto told IANS.<\/p>\n

“Similarly, unless and until I fall in love with the Indian script, I will not do it.”<\/p>\n

Now, Dev Patel is all set to star in his first Bollywood flick. <\/strong>Currently shooting in Udaipur with Malaika Arora Khan, the film is called The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.<\/p>\n
