Dev Patel and Freida Pinto

Whats next for Dev Patel and Freida Pinto? Rising to worldwide fame with the rags to riches story of a Mumbai slum dweller, the biggest question now lies is what are the two young stars now going to do.  Dev Patel and Freida Pinto already have curved high demands with their talent, and now, after Slumdog Millionaire has swept 8 Academy Awards, they are on the spotlight.  Slumdog, besides winning 8 Oscars in the 81st Academy Awards, have also earned nearly $100 million and still counting at the box office.

Dev has signed the The Last Airbender, a film by M. Night Shyamalan’s for Jesse McCartney’s role and Freida is up to be starred with Josh Brolin and Anthony Hopkins in Woody Allen’s next film. Freida is very excited about her role and is looking forward to work with Allen. Considering Allen has directed many actors to the Oscar glory (Vicky Cristina Barcelona’s Penelope Cruz is the latest example), this could just be a major coup for the actress.

For both Dev and Freida Slumdog had been their film debut. After a massive success of their first film they are looking forward to follow-up high-profile projects. Freida definitely seems to be in better hands than Dev.
